Does anyone know why they have not taken it through Canonbury tunnel to

I wasn't aware it closed... it was singled when the overhead went in,

There has been a recent short period of closure (certainly more than just a
few months) while the NLL resignalling and track alterations were
happening - but it was a part of their project timetable TTBOMK.
