Transport for London (TfL) says it is continuing to digest the feedback it has received on its plans to build a Crossrail 2 station in Chelsea .

It comes after it made clarifications and addressed concerns for other stations earmarked on the new line, which will stretch across the capital from the south west to north east.

A TfL spokesperson said: "At several of the locations, such as Chelsea, work is continuing as we understand the issues associated with the different options."

The comments come after the group opposing the new controversial new station earmarked for King’s Road at the junction of Sydney Street, criticised a report which said stamp duty would cover the costs of the £1 billion station within 20 years.

The report by economic consultancy Quod also said the new station will bring "compelling" economic benefits , resulting in a increased local business turnover of £180 million every year and over 3,000 new jobs for Londoners.

But Chris Lenon, from the No Crossrail in Chelsea group which handed in a petition with 10,000 names on it earlier this year , said Quod are part of a team working for TfL on the Crossrail 2 public consultation.

"They are not independent and their report should not be treated as being so," he said.

"Residents and small businesses oppose the station in overwhelming numbers.

"The costs of the station include £1bn in extra travel as all journeys south of Clapham Junction on Crossrail 2 will be an extra two minutes with a King’s Road station. This brings the total cost to £2.2bn.

"Spending this money on a station with no connectivity or transport case is a waste of public money in the current environment. There are better places in London for infrastructure spending."

And casting doubt on the figures, Mr Lenon continued: "The stamp duty receipts figure in the report is wrong, as TfL now forecast 600 homes not 1000 over the period to 2060 or 13 per annum.

"No one can explain where they will be or whether they will be in addition to normal building. Where are the sites for this scale of new homes unless this involves knocking down social housing?"
