Construction of the tunnels for London Undergrounds Northern line extension project, which will extend the line from Kennington to Battersea, is underway. Two permanent shafts have been dug close to Kennington Underground station from which the tunnelling programme has set off. The £1.2 billion Northern line extension is the first addition to the Underground network since the Jubilee line and will result in new stations being built at Battersea Power Station and Nine Elms.
