London Underground (Tube) lines on the web site for the tube
This could be the web site for the tube information you need.
There are twelve London Tube lines covering most of the City of London and its environs. The whole area is divided into 6 travel cost zones starting at the central zone No.1 - working outwards in concentric areas to No.6 at the outer reaches of the capital. Underground - Tube Map
The web site for the tube information is www.tfl.gov.uk - Services run constantly from around 05.00 to 00.30 (Sun 07.30 to 23.30) on most routes about 20 hours per day with trains arriving every few minutes at central London underground stations. Most of London's visitor attractions are close to Tube stations. We have indicated the closest, not necessarily the most convenient, underground station to each of our web-page subject where applicable.
If you are planning on travelling by public transport in London then we recommend you purchase a day ticket, or travel card, which covers the Tube, London Bus Service and The Docklands Light Railway (DLR), this will considerably reduce your travel costs.
