That would be quite some upgrade required 19tph over the 2 track Ouse viaduct/ Balcombe tunnel section? Perhaps ATO with a future Govia franchise struggling with the introduction of No Driver Operation? Or a BML2/ HS4 scheme?

The interventions suggested in the Route Study for after CP5 are:
  • ETCS ATO
  • London Victoria
    Connect Platform 8 to Sussex side, Brighton Reversible, bi-directional Up Fast
  • Windmill Bridge Jn
    Fast Lines grade separation & 6th track to East Croydon
  • East Croydon
    Additional platforms
  • Stoats Nest Jn
    Grade separation
  • Redhill (not required if none of the London Victoria to Haywards Heath services run via Redhill)
    Additional infrastructure, remodel country end
  • Reigate (not required if none of the London Victoria to Haywards Heath services run via Redhill)
    12-car bay platform and Platform 2
  • Gatwick Airport
    Additional/reconfigured crossovers
  • Haywards Heath
    Additional crossovers
  • Keymer Jn/Wivelsfield
    Additional up platform & grade separation
  • Hove
    Upgrade turnback siding
