Transport for London

Background

Ticket hall interchange Easier access for passengers King's Cross St. Pancras is one of London's oldest and busiest Underground stations. More than 73,000 passengers pass through it in the morning rush hour alone.

The station acts as a major interchange with two National Rail stations - St. Pancras and King's Cross -  and gets heavily congested.

In 1996, when the Channel Tunnel Rail Link Act was passed, it was recognised that the station would need to be redeveloped to cater for the large increase in passengers expected.

The £810m redevelopment works are being funded by the Department for Transport.

By 2010, with domestic and international high speed rail services operating from St. Pancras, 92,000 passengers will pass through the Underground station in the morning rush hour.

This will rise to 105,000 during the London 2012 Olympic Games.
