London Transport Museum has revealed plans for a transformation of its Covent Garden home, set to be complete by 2030, and resulting in a 20% boost to visitor numbers.
While budget and funding sources have yet to be announced, the museum has said the project will include a new entrance opening directly onto Covent Garden Piazza, and an extra 500 square metres of space for improved galleries and learning experiences. It also plans to add new interactive galleries and learning programmes.
The project will also introduce low-carbon heating and sustainability improvements that aim to reduce the Museum’s Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 90%.
