Project development leading to construction of Crossrail
This article is about the history of Crossrail prior to construction starting. For the construction of Crossrail, see Crossrail § Construction.
The Crossrail line was first proposed in 1941. It was first proposed to Parliament in 1991 but was rejected. It was then proposed by the government as the Crossrail bill in 2005. Construction started in 2009 and, heavily delayed, the central section was opened by Elizabeth II on 24 May 2022 with full completion due in 2023.
