Project
The Waterloo Underground Station is located next to the Waterloo Rail Station. It is a terminal station of the Waterloo & City Line, and also serves three other lines: Bakerloo, Northern and Jubilee. According to data for 2017, it is the second-busiest underground station in London, with 91.27 million users annually. The station was opened in 1898 on the Waterloo & City Railway line, and after that more lines were connected over the years. In 2016, it served a record number of passengers: 100.36 million. In order to handle such a large number of users, the station needed renovation and expansion, with four new platforms built in 2018. In order to give the interiors a modern look and improve functionality, all-glass balustrades and automatic gates were installed.
