Stations On The Jubilee Line Extension
The extension begins just south of Green Park, eastward to:
Station | London borough | Infrastructure |
---|---|---|
Westminster | Westminster | new ticket hall and two additional deep-level platforms |
Waterloo | Lambeth | two additional deep-level platforms |
Southwark | Southwark | new station with two deep-level platforms |
London Bridge | Southwark | two additional deep-level platforms |
Bermondsey | Southwark | new station with two deep-level platforms |
Canada Water | Southwark | new station with two deep-level platforms and two new sub-surface platforms on East London Line |
Canary Wharf | Tower Hamlets | new station with two deep-level platforms |
North Greenwich | Greenwich | new station with three deep-level platforms |
Canning Town | Newham | new station building with two surface platforms and two new elevated platforms on DLR |
West Ham | Newham | two additional surface platforms |

Before the extension was built, the Jubilee line terminated at Charing Cross. The section of Jubilee line between Charing Cross and Green Park is now unused for passenger services but is still maintained for emergency use (and at least one misdirected passenger train has ended up there). The abandoned platforms are occasionally rented out by TfL for use as a film set. This section may be re-used in the future as part of an extension of the Docklands Light Railway from Bank station.
