London Euston: Change called for at ‘dangerous’ station

Euston station, and the whole area, is in a state of uncertainty. It was meant to be redeveloped as part of HS2.

It’s not clear if that’s going to happen and work nearby has been mothballed for two years.

The transport secretary told BBC Radio 5Live a decision on where HS2 will end would be “clear soon”, with an announcement set to be made around the time of the Budget on 30 October.

Mayor of London Sadiq Khan believes Euston needs be redeveloped as part of HS2.

“Euston is a mess,” he said. “If you use Euston on a daily basis, the congestion, the platforms, the screens, the concerns of danger.

“We need to improve the public realm. I think the only way you are going to improve that station and have the connectivity we want, connecting to the Elizabeth line, connecting to the north, connecting to the Tube, is by Euston being a destination for High Speed 2.”
