Hackney: the place - Transport
Transport in Hackney is on the move. Recent years have seen many improvements with Hackney recognised as one of the top ten best boroughs in Great Britain for its transport connections. Hackney is now easier to get to and to get around.
Hackney Council is committed to green travel and through better public transport, walking and cycling routes wants to support and encourage all who work, live or study in Hackney to 'move greener'.
Hackney’s Mayor, Jules Pipe, led a four year campaign for these improvements. They will form a key part of the borough’s Olympic legacy and are vital part of the economic regeneration of Hackney
Four new London Overground stations are being built in Hackney - Dalston Junction, Haggerston, Hoxton and Shoreditch High Street stations are currently under construction as part of the extension of the East London Line.The stations are due to open by summer 2010, and will bring the borough’s first proper connection to the Tube network.
