Overview

This is an island platform running east/west with platform 9, Bakerloo Line lying south of platform 10, Jubilee Line.

The escalators from the lower concourse bring you into a wide, central reservation between the platforms which provides level access to platforms 9 and 10 plus stairs access to the southbound, platforms 7 and 8.

The entrances are to your right (east) of the exits as you leave the foot of the escalators.

The Central Reservation

The west passage runs between platforms 9 and 10 with routes to the southbound platforms leading from the east side. That to platform 7, is beside platform 10, whilst that towards platform 8 is beside platform 9.
