M25 motorway "Inside the M25" and "outside/beyond the M25" are colloquial, looser alternatives to "Greater London" sometimes used in haulage. The Communications Act 2003 explicitly uses the M25 as the boundary in requiring a proportion of television programmes to be made outside the London area. Two motorway service areas are on the M25, and two others are directly accessible from it. Those on the M25 are Clacket Lane between junctions 5 and 6 (in the south-east) and Cobham between junctions 9 and 10 (in the south-west). Those directly accessible from it are South Mimms off junction 23 (to the north of London)
London Underground infrastructure London Underground infrastructure The infrastructure of the London Underground includes 11 lines, with 270 stations. There are two types of line on the London Underground: services that run on the sub-surface network that is just below the surface and use larger trains, and the deep-tube lines, that are for the most part self-contained and use smaller trains. Most of the lines emerge on to the surface outside the central area. The oldest trains running on the Underground were introduced in 1972. The Underground is electrified using a four-rail system, the DC traction supply being independent of the running rails. Planned
