As stated in the latest HS2 six-monthly report to Parliament published on 20 October 2021, in response to a recommendation from the Oakervee Review about looking into the efficiency of the Euston station, the move to a smaller, simpler 10-platform station design at Euston will provide a more efficient design and delivery strategy, and play a significant role in mitigating the affordability pressures recently identified.
