BANK AND MONUMENT STATIONS: Until summer 2009, there is no interchange at Bank and Monument stations except between the DLR and Northern lines. This is due to major escalator replacement works. Please use alternative interchange stations. If you travel to the Bank and Monument areas you may find it easier to use nearby alternative stations such as Cannon Street, London Bridge, Mansion House and Moorgate. Local bus services 21 43 133 and 141 operate between London Bridge and Moorgate stations calling at Bank and Monument. PLEASE NOTE: During morning and evening peaks some Central and/or Northern line trains may not stop at Bank in order to prevent overcrowding.
