According to
https://www.london.gov.uk/sites/defa...%20Paper_3.pdf
, by 2022 Bank station should have "a new southbound running tunnel and
platform for the Northern line". What's wrong with the one they've got?

Same deal as Angel and London Bridge.


Not quite... Angel had the two tracks in the same station tunnel, like
Clapham Common etc.


Fair enough, but they're all solutions to the same problem, fitting vastly
more people into old, constricted stations.

Are there plans to rebuild those two stations south of Kennington, the
names of which I cannot at this time recall?
