Tube: Jubilee line extension celebrates 25 years

Why not paint or mosaic tile that concrete ceiling?

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Part of the Tube line that connected central and south-east London 25 years ago is being celebrated by Transport for London (TfL).The Jubilee line extension connects Green Park with the Docklands.All 11 stations along the route were designed by architect Roland Paoletti to herald the new millennium.To mark the occasion, TfL has created 25th anniversary posters that will feature along the Jubilee line over the coming weeks.

As a Tube expansion east and west of the centre was considered immediately before and after World War II, the Jubilee prototype was named the Fleet line, after London's subterranean Fleet River.It was renamed the Jubilee line in 1977 as part of the celebrations to mark Queen Elizabeth II's silver Jubilee.

The line was officially opened by the Prince of Wales on 30 April 1979, with passenger services operating from 1 May 1979.

In May 1999, it was then expanded further adding Stratford, the line’s current eastern terminus and where Stratford International and Westfield Shopping Centre would later open, and North Greenwich, close to the Millennium Dome, now the O2.

It extended further west in the September to Bermondsey via the Canary Wharf financial district, which is now the most-used station for a single line and the busiest station outside central London, serving 40 million people each year.The stations were built all step-free, with lifts, ramps and level surfaces for people with accessibility requirements.

With the new millennium on the horizon, Jubilee's final phase connected Bermondsey with Green Park, creating the line as we know it today.
