Summary[edit]
DescriptionEnd of the Northern Line, Edgware tube station - geograph.org.uk - 1304189.jpg |
English: End of the Northern Line, Edgware tube station An image of the bufferstops at Edgware tube station showing the tunnelmouth which was planned to accept tracks taking the line 5 kilometres northwest of this station to a new terminus at Bushey Heath. Construction on the new line to Bushey Heath began in the late 1930s but were halted by the outbreak of the Second World War. After the war, Green Belt legislation was introduced to limit the outward expansion of urban areas into the surrounding countryside. The area through which the new Bushey Heath extension was routed was designated as Green Belt meaning that the planned residential developments were prevented and the need for the stations serving them was removed. The completion of the plans to extend the Northern line were formally cancelled in 1950. |
