"Tottenham Court Road is London’s busiest Underground station, according to new data analysed by The Standard. The central London station, serviced by the Elizabeth, Central, and Northern lines, saw more than 63.4million people pass through in 2025. Tottenham Court Road ranked top again in Q1 2026, with 15.2 passengers tapping in and out. It means exit and entry taps at the Tube station have beaten the likes of Liverpool Street and Victoria on Tube services."
"On the DLR, Canary Wharf was the busiest station, clocking 6.13 million passengers in 2025 while Bond Street was the busiest Elizabeth line station with 42.4 million passengers. The three busiest stations on the Underground, DLR, and Elizabeth line - Tottenham Court Road, Canary Wharf, and Bond Street - are all serviced by the Elizabeth line which shows how the line has transformed travel demand in the capital. The Elizabeth line is the busiest railway in the country, seeing 4.7 million journeys a week according to TfL."
"Shepherd's Bush was the busiest station on the London Overground with 6.7 million passengers in 2025, but was pipped to the post by Shoreditch High Street in Q1 of this year. The data counts actual entry and exit taps, rather than an annualised average and was collated via a Freedom of Information request. Roding Valley station on the Central line in Essex was the least busy Tube station with just over 130,000 passengers in 2025."
"The least used Elizabeth line station in 2025 was Iver in Buckinghamshire with just over 200,000 journeys made. The least busy Overground stop was Emerson Park with 222294 users in 2025. Beckton Park was the lest busy DLR station with 279489 users last year. The most popular bus stop was outside Brixton station in south London. There was no least busy bus station on account of many bus network stations being temporary. On trams, East Croydon took first place with 1.9 million passengers."
