Transport for London has published an updated map detailing the Tube stations and lines that currently feature 4G and 5G mobile coverage. In the last eight months, additional parts of the London Underground have received upgrades, and nine new areas were recently incorporated. TfL intends to link up the whole network before the year concludes, as engineers are carrying out overnight installations of infrastructure.
