The Metropolitan Line will now run right in to the heart fo Watford, as a £117m scheme is approved.
The Metropolitan Line currently terminates at Watford station, to the west of the town centre. This station will close, and the line will be extended to the existing Watford High Street Station and, eventually to Watford Junction.
The Government will be providing £76m, with the balance coming from Hertfordshire County Council, Watford Borough Council, and Three Rivers District Council.
