Whatever happened to the plan to run a shuttle bus between Euston and
St.Pancras, via Somers Town in the daytime, and via Euston Road at night
(when noise is more of a problem for residents, and the congestion
charge boundary road isn't so busy)?
What on Earth would be the point?
Shifting passengers from one to the other, of course. There's expected
to be many passengers arriving in Euston who want to get a Eurostar from
St.Pancras, but the tube journey is rather inconvenient (especially
since the tube station's under Kings Cross rather than St.Pancras). It's
also rather inconvenient to walk between them (though many people have,
myself included) but a travelator link between them would be too
expensive, and the tram is unlikely to be built any time soon.
Therefore, if they're going to do anything, they'll have to use buses.
I expect they'll do nothing, but I wondered whether the bus link plan
had got anywhere.
