Baker Street works

Repairs will be taking place to the pavement and area outside the shops in the spring of 2023.
Transport for London (TfL) owns and manages several properties in Baker Street as well as operational land, the station and railway tracks.
As you may be aware, we recently undertook investigative works into the state of Baker Street station’s structural underpinnings. During these works, we identified issues that need to be repaired for the long-term safety of the building. To remedy these issues, we will be starting some strengthening, waterproofing and pavement renewal works along 186 – 236 Baker Street as well as along Marylebone Road and part of Allsop Place.
This critical work needs to be carried out as soon as possible and we have already started the mobilisation and enabling works, with pavement and highways works commencing in spring 2023.
Our proposed programme of works is detailed below. Due to the nature of these works, timescales may be subject to change.
