The road between Piccadilly Circus and St James's Park could be transformed into a massive public plaza and vehicles could be banned from Regent Street St James's, Waterloo Place and the south side of Piccadilly Circus. If the proposals are enacted, the pedestrianisation of certain roads would lead to more than 35,000 square metres of new public space, equivalent to more than five football pitches, created in the West End.

Are you claustrophobic? Look away now. Because a brand-new capsule hotel has just opened in central London. For people who enjoy being confined in small spaces - it's cosy! - the Zedwell Capsule Hotel in Piccadilly Circus has just welcomed its first guests. The 1,000-pod hotel costs £30 per night, and it has taken over the the Pavilion, a Grade II-listed building on Great Windmill Street.

A man is in hospital after a casualty was reported on the tracks at Piccadilly Circus station. Police were called to the Underground station just before 2pm today.
