Elizabeth line map

Similarly those wanting central London from Shenfield will have to change at Liverpool Street station. Transport for London have confirmed that the new Elizabeth line will open for public use on 24 May 2022.

The cheapest locations are all on the east and south-east London sections of the Elizabeth line, in key areas with average houses under £500000 and flats ...

This east London outpost is the cheapest place to buy a flat across the Crossrail network with average prices at £214,120. Perhaps because — unlike other stops along the line — there weren’t acres of unloved industrial land to build on, and nothing terribly wrong with this pleasant and family friendly suburb to start off with. Largely due to the thousands of new homes, mainly apartments, in the area. It's also is the fifth cheapest Crossrail location to buy a flat with prices £249,660 on average. Plans to redevelop the tatty Chadwell Heath Baptist Church and convert part of it into flats, were approved last year. Abbey Wood has seen some of the strongest price growth along the Crossrail line over the past decade.

This is the official end of Crossrail (well, at least until Crossrail 2, if that ever happens). Crossrail was the name given to the engineering project to construct the line, but now it's up and running and handed over to TfL, it's the Elizabeth line. It's also goodbye to TfL Rail, which was introduced as an interim service before the Elizabeth line opened, and has therefore overstayed its welcome by about 42 months.
