Join SAVE and the former TfL Head of Design and Heritage for a special tour of the Jubilee Line Extension, an architectural landmark that transformed London’s underground. Hailed as “the biggest architectural sensation of its kind since the Moscow Underground” when it opened in 1999, the extension was led by Roland Paoletti and features designs by Hopkins Architects, Will Alsop, and Foster + Partners. Part of LFA 2026, this tour explores how underground architecture shapes shared urban life, and how care, collaboration, and everyday use can turn transport spaces into places people feel connected to and responsible for across generations.
