Bond Street tube station is a London Underground station on Oxford Street, near the junction with New Bond Street. The entrance to the station is inside the West One shopping arcade on the corner of Oxford Street and Davies Street. Note that the station entrances are several metres west of New Bond Street itself.

The station is on the Central Line between Marble Arch and Oxford Circus and on the Jubilee Line, between Baker Street and Green Park. It is in Travelcard Zone 1.

History

In 1909, Harry Selfridge proposed a subway link to his new Selfridges store to the west. Contemporary opposition quashed the idea.

The station has seen several major reconstructions. The first, which saw the original lifts replaced by escalators, a new sub-surface ticket hall and a new façade to the station, designed by the architect Charles Holden, came into use on 8 June 1926. This was demolished with the construction of the "West One" shopping arcade in the 1980s, a period that had also seen the Jubilee Line services to this station commence on 1 May 1979. Some slight elements of the original facade do survive above the eastern entrance to the station.
