TRANSPORT AND<br />

COMMUNICATIONS<br />

Rail / Underground<br />

London boasts one of the world’s largest over-ground / underground rail networks and is the hub for the UK’s<br />

domestic transport networks. <strong>Peterborough</strong> <strong>Court</strong> and Daniel House benefit from excellent transportation links<br />

with both the West End and City being easily accessible.<br />

City Thameslink – Situated approximately 200 metres<br />

east of the property, providing mainline rail services to<br />

Kings Cross, Gatwick Airport and the commuter areas<br />

of Surrey, Kent and Sussex.<br />

Blackfriars – Situated approximately 300 metres south<br />

of the property, providing access to the District and<br />

Circle line underground services and City Thameslink<br />

mainline rail services.<br />

Chancery Lane – Situated approximately 400 metres<br />

north-west of the property, providing access to the<br />

Central line underground service.<br />

Crossrail<br />

The property is situated close to the proposed Crossrail<br />

station at Farringdon, due to open in 2018. Crossrail,<br />

the Government’s flagship east-west rail link, will be a<br />

new sub-ground railway across central London linking<br />

Maidenhead in the west to Abbey Wood in the east.<br />

Crossrail will connect to Heathrow Airport giving<br />

the City a direct rail connection to Europe’s leading<br />

international airport in approximately 30 minutes<br />

and provide City to West End access in approximately<br />

10 minutes.<br />

The new service will increase capacity to 200 million<br />

passengers a year including a 54% increase in rail<br />

capacity to Canary Wharf and 21% more to the City.<br />

At the heart of the project is the construction of a<br />

new tunnelled route across central London with new<br />

stations at Paddington, Bond Street, Tottenham <strong>Court</strong><br />

Road, Farringdon, Liverpool Street, Whitechapel,<br />

Canary Wharf and Woolwich.
