Description
Bank Station is a London Underground station located in the City of London financial district. It is a key interchange served by five existing lines. The Bank Station Capacity Upgrade (BSCU) comprises the construction of new tunnels adjacent to and connecting with the existing tunnels. The capacity upgrade includes the construction of 540 metres of running tunnel intercepting with existing foundation piles at four no. building locations. A bespoke solution was developed for each of the buildings and the building impact was assessed in detail.
