The western of the two chords north of the station was reinstated on 28 February 2011 for East London Line services to Highbury & Islington. There are no plans to rebuild the eastern chord but its alignment has been safeguarded. The eastern chord was used by Broad Street services to Poplar. The City Extension to the south was mainly four-track but now has only two. The wide site at Dalston Junction has in the past had six platforms.
