Wi-Fi on the Underground

BT has announced wi-fi trials at Charing Cross underground station, as they make moves to get mobile phones working on the tube.



It’s a six month trial that will see connectivity introduced to the ticket hall and the Bakerloo and Northern Line platforms. The City of London already has 95% wi-fi coverage.


The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, has pledged to make London a huge wi-fi hotspot in time for the 2012 Olympics. Dubbed ‘Project Wi-Fi’, more than half of London’s local councils have signed up to the scheme. The plans include seeing lamp posts and bus stops wi-fi enabled.
