For the Westfield London shopping mall in West London, two new stations have been built and another has been completely re-built to ensure that public transport is the main mode of transport to what is one of Europe's largest shopping centres.

A picture of the centre (taken a few weeks ago) below shows the scale of the site which is due to open for shoppers in under 23 days time.





Confusingly, there are two Shepherd's Bush stations serving the centre (one for the Central Line, and another for the Overground Line), but as visible from the below pictures they are either side of a large bus interchange. In the above picture they are at the bottom of the picture.

The only work left on the revamped Central Line station is to install the digital displays covering the 'bare' surfaces.

The other station: Wood Lane which is at the north end of the site is due to open next week and is located on the Hammersmith & City Line. Look for the purple viaduct to see the location for this new station.
