The Elizabeth line stations are the latest to go live with Vodafone 4G, joining parts of the London Underground where 4G is also available. Vodafone customers travelling on the Elizabeth line are now receiving 4G. They are now able to stream and connect while at stations and ticket halls across the line, including Paddington, Bond Street, Tottenham Court Road and Farringdon.
The Elizabeth line stations are the latest to go live with Vodafone 4G, joining parts of the London Underground where 4G is also available. This includes large sections of the Central, Jubilee and Northern lines, including Westminster, Waterloo and Canary Wharf. Meanwhile, Vodafone 5G is also live across parts of the Central and Northern lines, including Oxford Circus and Tottenham Court Road.
All of the London Underground – including platforms and tunnels – will receive 4G as part of a partnership with Transport for London (TfL) and Boldyn Networks. Vodafone plans to introduce 5G to all stations, as part of the partnership, at some point in the future.

The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, said: “This is yet another step towards ensuring Londoners and visitors can stay connected on our transport network. I promised that customers would be able to access high-speed mobile coverage at all stations and in tunnels, and I’m pleased to see how quickly the team are moving to enable 4G and 5G connectivity. Now, customers can access the latest travel information, keep in touch with colleagues, friends and family, use social media and stream music at every station along the Elizabeth line. This is just one of the many ways we are supporting Londoners as we build a better, fairer and more prosperous London for everyone.”
Andrea Dona, Vodafone’s UK Network Director, said “The arrival of 4G across the Elizabeth line is a huge step in the wider programme to bring our coverage to both the London Underground and the Elizabeth line. It reinforces our commitment to ensuring our customers have access to our award-winning network wherever they live, work or visit, while ensuring the capital has the world-class digital infrastructure it deserves.”
