Driven by population and employment growth in London and the South East, the report reveals that Bond Street, Tottenham Court Road and Farringdon stations could serve as many as 250 million visitors into and out of central London by 2026. This figure represents 65 million more passengers than the 2004 estimates suggested. On an annual basis, this is equivalent to some 166 million additional passengers than use the three stations today.
