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.
