Bank

The Bank-Monument complex sits beneath King William Street at the very center of the City of London, threading together the Central, Northern, Waterloo & City, and District lines with the Docklands Light Railway under a single fare-zone-1 interchange. Though officially counted as one station, Bank and Monument retain distinct names and entrances connected by an extensive sub-surface tunnel network — a layout that regularly disorients first-time users. With 52 million passenger journeys recorded in 2013 alone, it ranks among the busiest interchanges on the entire Underground. Its primary value to visitors is positional: it surfaces directly beside the Bank of England, the Monument to the Great Fire of London, and the dense financial architecture of the Square Mile.
