Covent Garden is 'Way Out only' at all times until the end of the year.

*Really*?! Then it shows that TfL's encouragement to use other
stations to get there works;

The reason is actually because TfL are currently enlarging the ticket
hall and providing five new exit gates, which also means that there is
currently no room for either ticket machines or a ticket office, hence
the station is exit only until December.

Its the second stage in the improvement plan announced a couple of years
ago (the first being improved signage).

The third stage, if it goes ahead, will be the addition of a second
ticket hall and more lifts, or possibly escalators.
