The north side of the line also separates in two branches from Camden Town, Edgware and High Barnet. Allude to 52 stations, which 38 has a platforms beneath the ground.
Since mid January Northern line was partly closed between Moorgate to Kennington. A closure affected considerable part of a Bank branch.
Covering affected stations:
Closure was necessary to lighten the overladen stations, exceptionally at Bank and Monument.
Transport for London (TfL) points out that those two stations has one of the highest rate of interchange among the entire Tube network, with 120 million passengers per annum.
Bank station is expected to have a brand new entrance with the step-free access from Cannon Street in late autumn, 2022.
