Studies completed have not identified any deep piles from buildings in direct conflict with the HS2 tunnels between Old Oak Common and Euston. The tunnels between Old Oak Common and Euston will be constructed using tunnel boring machines designed to minimise any impact on buildings and monitoring of the buildings will be undertaken during the tunnelling works.
