They might call the new station Beaulieu Park after the New Hall site (King Henry VIII and all that Time Team stuff). It will be sited alongside the existing A12 services and 2 passing loops will ease the congestion during peak periods; rather like they have at Witham. The expected opening date is 2015 and the budget will probably change a few times before they are done! It has been talked about for at least 10 years to my knowledge and I can virtually see where it will be built from my house. It will probably dwarf the amount of passangers using the town station because of easier parking/park & ride, etc.
But that's if it ever happens???
They started building a station at Southend Airport then someone complained so it stopped. This country is mad when it comes to pandering to whims right-left & centre.
