Outline design work has already been completed for the planned refurbishment of the station which has benefited from a £3.5m Welsh Government investment including European Regional Development Fund structural funding, £1.5m from the Department for Transport's National Stations Improvement Programme and a further £150,000 from the Railway Heritage Trust.

Detailed design work will now commence on the station enhancement which will include a new frontage, ticket office, improved bus facilities and customer information systems.
The Minister with responsibility for Transport, Carl Sargeant, said: "The upgrade of Llandudno Station is the first in a number of station improvements that the Welsh Government is supporting as we strive to make rail travel more comfortable and attractive to the public.
"In addition to providing a positive first impression for visitors to Llandudno this project will also provide a boost to the local economy as local employment will be used in the refurbishment of the station."
