Croxley is a station on the London Underground in Croxley Green, Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, on the Watford branch of the Metropolitan line and it is the only intermediate station on the branch between the terminus at Watford and Moor Park on the main line from Baker Street to Amersham It is in Travelcard Zone 7.
The station is situated on Watford Road, the A412, in Croxley Green.
The Croxley Rail Link is a railway engineering project. When complete, Watford branch services on the London Underground's Metropolitan line will be diverted at Baldwins Lane from the current terminus at Watford tube station onto the alignment of the disused Watford and Rickmansworth Railway between Croxley Green railway station and Watford High Street stations before continuing to Watford Junction. The diversion requires the construction of a viaduct over the Grand Union Canal, River Gade and A412 road.
