Transport for London (TfL) is pushing for new rail links to support Heathrow Airport's expansion, including a Southern link from Terminal 5 to Staines and a Western rail link involving a tunnel to the Great Western Main Line between Langley and Iver. These links aim to accommodate an expected 80% passenger surge and prevent increased M25 traffic.
