Euston Square is a London Underground station at the corner of Euston Road and Gower Street, just north of University College London and within walking distance of Euston railway station. It is between Great Portland Street and King's Cross St. Pancras on the Circle, Hammersmith & City and Metropolitan lines, in Travelcard Zone 1. It should not be confused with the nearby Euston tube station for the Northern and Victoria lines.

In 2011, two new lifts linking the westbound platform to the street were opened. On top of these a new modern entrance was opened.

History

The station opened in 1863 as "Gower Street", changing to its present name in 1909. In late 2006 the new entrance on the south side of Euston Road opened in a corner of the new headquarters of the Wellcome Trust replacing the old entrance. There is also a subway entrance on the north side of Euston Road.

Future

In December 2005 Network Rail announced plans^[7] to create a subway link between the station and Euston station as part of the re-development of Euston station. This will create a direct link for users of main line rail services which depart from Euston. These plans would also be pursued during a rebuilding for High Speed 2.^[8]

Connections

London Buses routes 10; 14; 18; 24; 27; 29; 30; 73; 88; 134; 205; 390 and night routes N5; N18; N20; N29; N73; N205 and N279 serve the station.
