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 |
| Stratford | Newham | new station building and plaza as well as three 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.

Famous quotes containing the words stations, line and/or extension:
“A reader who quarrels with postulates, who dislikes Hamlet because he does not believe that there are ghosts or that people speak in pentameters, clearly has no business in literature. He cannot distinguish fiction from fact, and belongs in the same category as the people who send cheques to radio stations for the relief of suffering heroines in soap operas.”
—Northrop Frye (b. 1912)
“The real dividing line between early childhood and middle childhood is not between the fifth year and the sixth year—it is more nearly when children are about seven or eight, moving on toward nine. Building the barrier at six has no psychological basis. It has come about only from the historic-economic-political fact that the age of six is when we provide schools for all.”
—James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
“‘Tis the perception of the beautiful,
A fine extension of the faculties,
Platonic, universal, wonderful,
Drawn from the stars, and filtered through the skies,
Without which life would be extremely dull.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
