No Jedis or Sith Lords in sight!

The Jubilee line station at Canary Wharf provides step-free access from the street right onto the train itself. There are escalators and a lift that travel from the street down to the ticket hall. The ticket hall also has an accessible toilet and a number of shops and food vendors. There is a large number of ticket barriers, including wider ticket barriers. Once you have passed through the ticket barriers there are then more escalators and another lift that takes you down to the platform where you can get Jubilee line trains in either direction. The platform has seating available and the edge of the platform is protected by glass walls and doors that align with the train doors. Boarding the train is entirely step-free; there was a minor lip and gap but it was very manageable for me in my wheelchair. There are blue circular markers on the floor which highlight the most accessible points to board the train. These points are closest to the wheelchair spaces on the train. My favourite fact about this station is that it was used as a set location in a Star Wars film!
