Northern Line Tottenham Court Road platforms to re-open

November 23, 2011 - Staff

Northern line platforms at Tottenham Court Road tube station will re-open on Monday following works to increase capacity and improve access.

The works are part of a programme to improve the station for its daily 147,000 passengers and provide an interchange with Crossrail services when they commence in 2018.

David Waboso, Capital Programmes Director at Transport for London, said: “We would like to thank passengers for their patience whilst the Northern line platforms have been closed.

“There is still further work to be done behind the scenes at the station and passengers will notice that the platforms only have a temporary render finish on the walls.

“Our priority has been to reopen the platforms as soon as the heavy civil engineering works were completed and they could be used safely by customers.  As works to upgrade the station continue, we ask passengers to continue to bear with us.”
