Randomness Guide to London Menu

Enormous station complex made up of Bank and Monument stations. Five Tube lines plus a DLR terminus. Ten platforms, of which the DLR are 9 (departures) and 10 (arrivals).

As of 31 March 2008, interchange is drastically restricted due to escalator work.

The original idea was for the complex to basically operate as three separate stations:

• Central Line and Waterloo and City Line
• Northern Line and DLR
• Circle and District lines

Interchange between these three sections of the complex was planned to be only via street level. It's likely though not yet tested that street-level interchange will count as a continuous journey for Oyster PAYG purposes. For more information, see TfL announcement, Going Underground blog post (including the comments), and London Connections diagrams.

Things are still changing, but this London Connections diagram shows the (somewhat improved) situation as of 4 April.
