A TfL press release this week confirmed that the Northern Line extension to Battersea is definitely going ahead.
Battersea extension
They’re already calling it the ‘NLE‘, the Northern Line Extension, even though it’s just for two stations! We would expect them to be as large, and architecturally as brilliant as the new Jubilee (JLE) stations were back in 1999.
And they’re optimistically saying that they could be be finished as soon as 2020.
So what will be first to open? The new Metropolitan Line extension, Crossrail, or the NLE?
