Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 15 January 2015 to Question 220507 on plans for High Speed 2, whether a full-scale redevelopment of Euston Station has been abandoned; and whether plans have reverted to Option 8.
Our ambition is to transform Euston for passengers, and make it a new commercial hub for the Capital. Our long term aim is to bring about a comprehensive redevelopment of the station in accordance with Camden Council's Euston Area Plan.
Our plan is to deliver this redevelopment in a phased approach that:
- minimises disruption to the current station and surrounding area
- engages potential investors and businesses
- ensures we maintain a dialogue with local residents and businesses.
