alison Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Spotted in Friday's Evening Standard (Google on "shutdown between Moorgate" if you want to read it in full) is a report that the Northern Line extension is "due to open in September 2021, but there will be a 17-week shutdown between Moorgate and Kennington, after work to increase capacity at Bank station". No dates are given as yet, but while not directly affecting Angel tube, and hence Sadler's Wells, it will mean that at some stage there won't be a Northern Line service between London Bridge/Bank and Angel, for several months. Moorgate is also one of the tube stations for the Barbican, so travel to events there may be affected as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Wall Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Thanks for this, Alison. Have looked for the article but came up as having been removed from their archives! That was quick. If you see anything about the dates grateful if you could post. The Battersea extension had been scheduled to open next year. I wonder why the delay. The bit around me seems to be very much on schedule as towards its completion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Wall Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 (edited) Funny how the new update notice posted yesterday around the Kennington Park hoardings still lists the active launch as being 2020! Someone on their marketing/PR needs to read the ES!! ... or BcoF!!! .... it seems Edited June 22, 2019 by Bruce Wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
