Passengers ascend and descend the deep escalator shafts of London Bridge Underground Station, one of the busiest interchanges in the capital’s rail network. Rebuilt and expanded during the Jubilee Line Extension project of the 1990s, the station’s concrete-lined tunnels and exposed mechanical framework represent a fusion of industrial engineering and modern architectural design.
At nearly 26 meters below ground, these escalators connect the Northern and Jubilee lines with the mainline concourse above, handling tens of thousands of passengers daily. The structural bracing and utilitarian lighting were deliberately retained as visual elements, emphasizing the monumental scale of London’s deep-level transport infrastructure.
