Canary Wharf tube station is a busy station located on the Jubilee Line in the London Docklands area. It is shown on the tube map as being an interchange with the DLR, however they are seperate stations and you will have to walk to switch between them.

When the Jubilee line was extended from Green Park to Stratford, it was intended to be the showpiece of the line. Designed by Norman Forster, the concourse beneath Jubilee Park is the size of a cathedral (weddings have even been held here), and a highlight is coming up the exit esculators. The platforms have regular features of the Jubilee Line such as Platform Edge Doors. Despite this, there has been evidence that the station may soon reach its capacity.
