Your comments and questions

Andrew Owen Hi. Sorry I would like to know please, are there any open to the sky areas between High Street Kensington and Ealing Broadway?

Staff Hi Andrew. It looks like there are six little tunnels along the way, but 90% of the journey is above ground. Here's a map showing where the tunnels are: content.tfl.gov.uk/tube-map-with-tunnels.pdf

Jasmine Hello, does High Street Kensington tube station have a lift to go to platforms? Pensioner.

Staff Hi Jasmine. No, you have to use stairs at High Street Kensington
