Now the construction team has taken possession of part of the Euston site, steps to begin construction can begin.

Piling work for the basement wall of the station will begin in advance of the large scale excavations and substructure works next year.

During the peak construction period at Euston, around 3,000 people will be working at the site, part of the 30,000 strong team that will be working across the route.

The project team will be looking for future suppliers to the project for packages ranging from water treatment systems through to lifts and escalator systems.

Opportunities will be advertised on by Mace Dragados and the team鈥檚 subcontractors.
