Bakerloo line extension over the coming years. During 2005–06, TfL commissioned a transport strategic report for London, "Transport 2025: transport challenges for a growing city". Transport commentators have reported that this publication had recommended a Bakerloo extension as the most beneficial option for extending the Tube in South London, and that it considered three route options for the Bakerloo line; from Elephant & Castle, the proposed routes were either south to Camberwell and Streatham, or east to Beckenham and Hayes: Option 1: via Burgess Park, east to and ,with the option of taking over the Hayes Line to terminate at Option 2: south
Edgware Road tube station (Bakerloo line) The permitted NWLR route passed Edgware Road station and the companies sought permission in November 1908 for a section of tunnel long linking the BS&WR and the NWLR tunnels. To make use of the BS&WR's existing permission for the line to Paddington, Edgware Road station was to be provided with a second pair of platforms to enable the operation of a shuttle service between Paddington and Edgware Road. The scheme was rejected and the line was not built. In 1911, permission was received to construct a tightly-curved long extension to Paddington which ended heading north-west under the main line station.
