HC Deb 16 November 1989 vol 160 c393W
Mr. Bowis

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what is the number of London Underground stations north of the River Thames and the number south of the River Thames; and what plans are there to bring underground lines south of the river.

Mr. Portillo

There are 244 London Underground stations north of the River Thames and 29 south of the river. We are considering the extension of the Jubilee line via the south bank of the river to Canary wharf. An announcement on this will be made shortly.
