Anyone else got any opnions? It sounds like you are heading from Docklands-ish to West London-ish - I would opt for Bond Street unless I particularly fancied sight-seeing by DLR. Neither interchange is wonderful but Bond Street is the lesser of two evils - easier to find your way around and probably a bit quicker. -- Dave Arquati www.alwaystouchout.com - Transport projects in London Thanks Dave. Again a quick response. |

Anyone else got any opnions? 3 for Bond Street anyone for Bank? I suggest Bond Street too. Don't think anyone would suggest Bank in this case. There is a diagram of the Bank/Monument station complex he http://homepage.ntlworld.com/clive.b...aps/ltmonu.jpg The diagram gives an indication about which of the changes are worst within the complex. Not related to this thread but looking at that diagram the escalators and walkways between Northern Line or DLR up to the Monument station look surprisingly short in proportion to other parts of the diagram IMO. It might be that it is not easy to get the proportions look right on such a diagram... (or it might be that my feeling of my Circle-DLR interchange experience is worse than the change actually is...) -- Olof Lagerkvist ICQ: 724451 Web: http://here.is/olof |

Neither interchange is very easy, but the important thing about Bank is that you have to know the way and ignore all signs. This is obviously not easy if you are not familiar with it. The way to get from the DLR to the Central is to head up the first big escalator as directed (towards the front of the arriving DLR), but to ignore the second escalator and turn right as if to the Northern Line, after which you will find the direct passageway from the Northern to the Central which, unlike following the original signs, doesn't take you over the Central and down again. Going this way, I think it's probably no worse than or slightly easier than Bond Street. |
