Improvements to London Underground's Northern line stations are an operational matter for London Underground. However, I understand the position to be as follows(a) NORTHERN LINE STATIONS

  • Station improvement projects in the last three years
  • 1994–95
  • Colindale
  • Kennington
  • 1995–96
  • Brent Cross
  • Burnt Oak
  • Chalk Farm
  • Clapham North
  • Clapham South
  • Finchley Central
  • Hampstead
  • Totteridge and Whetstone
  • Tufnell Park
    • 762
  • 1996–97
  • None
  • Station improvements in 1997–98
  • Clapham Common
  • Mornington Crescent
  • Oval
  • Tooting Bec
  • Tooting Broadway
(b) INTERCHANGE STATIONS ON THE NORTHERN LINE
  • Station improvements in the last three years
  • 1994–95
  • None

  • Old Street
  • Waterloo
  • 1996–97
