Borough tube station

Borough tube station is a London Underground station in The Borough, London Borough of Southwark. It is on the Northern Line, between Elephant and Castle and London Bridge stations. It is in Travelcard Zone 1 and is currently nearing the end of a renovation project.

A lift means that the station is accessible without stairs to passengers travelling northbound from the station, but there is a short flight of steps to reach the southbound platform. It is usually quicker for able-bodied passengers to take the spiral stairs than the lift.

The station was opened on 18 December 1890 as part of the City and South London Railway - the original deep-level Tube - which ran between Stockwell and King William Street.
