Batteresea is finally going to have its place on the Tube Map.The Northern Line Extension (NLE) will improve transport capacity throughout the Vauxhall Nine Elms area with stops at Wandsworth Road and Battersea Power Station. It will also relieve pressure at Vauxhall station.
In November 2011 the extension was included in a group of infrastructure projects announced by George Osborne, due to be backed by the Government,although completed with private sector funding.
In the proposal Battersea Power Station would become the focus for a new town centre with 66,000 square metres of retail, restaurant and cafe space - more than Clapham Junction and Wandsworth town centres.
