## About this tender

As anticipated in the UK Infrastructure 10-year strategy in June 2025, the Department for Transport (DfT) is establishing the Euston Delivery Company (EDC) to lead delivery of a renewed, fully integrated transport gateway of national and local significance at Euston and support the associated commercial property development. The Euston programme sits at the heart of Camden Council’s and the Greater London Authority’s wider plans for commercial and housing development in the Euston Area and includes upgrades to the existing mainline station, significant enhancements to the London Underground Interchange, improvements to local bus and taxi facilities, and the development of a new high-speed station (all together, the ‘campus’). Detailed design and construction of the new HS2 station is expected to be delivered by a Private Finance Partner, procured separately and subject to separate preliminary market engagement.

EDC plans to engage an Engineering and Design Partner (EDP) that is expected to demonstrate core capabilities which include:
