45% of the overall network is underground. Nearly all of the lines run underground through the city centre and overground in the suburbs. The busiest stations tend to the be the ones which are completely underground.

The Victoria Line is the only line which is completely underground (with the exception of the train depot at Northumberland Park). All the others run partly underground.
