A Walk Between The Two New Crossrail Entrances At Bond Street Station

After a wrote A Look At Bond Street Station, I decided to go and have a look on the surface.

This Google Map shows the area.

Bond Street Crossrail Station

Note.

1. The new Western entrance is in Davies Street just to the South of the current Bond Street station.
2. The new Eastern entrance just to the West of the green oasis of Hanover Square.
3. South Moulton Street is the road running diagonally from the tube station.

Shopping in Oxford and Bond Streets will be much easier.

Road Layout At Bond Street East Station

I found this map on the this page of the Crossrail web site.

This is Crossrail’s description of the area at the present time.

The urban realm design provides a new setting for the Crossrail station and a framework for restoration of the historic layout of the square by creating generous pedestrian areas around the gardens and on all sides of the square.

The new Crossrail station entrance on Hanover Square is located in the Mayfair conservation area, between Oxford Street and Regent Street. In the past the environment in Hanover Square has been dominated by traffic, with very wide carriageways, low quality pedestrian space and the general lack of a coherent public realm.

Crossrail’s proposals and those of Great bPortland Estates sound a lot better, with shared space and all the features pedestrians and cyclists need.
