Goldhawk Road is an above-ground London Underground station in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham . It is in the Travelcard tariff zone 2, on the street of the same name in the Shepherd's Bush district . In 2014, 2.10 million passengers used this station, which was served by Hammersmith & City Line and Circle Line trains.

The station was opened on April 1, 1914 by the Metropolitan Railway (predecessor of the Metropolitan Line ). The reason for the construction was the simultaneous relocation of Shepherd's Bush station about three hundred meters to the north. However, the line had already been opened in 1864 by the Hammersmith & City Railway , which initially belonged to the Great Western Railway and three years later became the property of the Metropolitan Railway. In 1990 the Hammersmith branch of the Metropolitan Line became operationally independent under the name Hammersmith & City Line. Circle Line trains have also stopped here since December 13, 2009.
