It used to be fully loaded back in 2014. Often people couldn't get on at
Dalston Junction.


What time? People get to work early in the City. I doubt you'd see
major crowding going south at about 9 am.


8.30-9 roughly.

There have been some peak standing studies - it's going north to
Highbury that's worse but this study was done a while ago. Other
crowding looks to be coming from south towards Canada Water.


Canada water has a problem because the jubilee line trains are crush loaded
in the morning rush hour so people simply can't get on and if 2 ELL trains
unload at the same time its game over. I've seen the jubilee platforms full on
a number of occasions.
