Major transformation is afoot at London Transport Museum.
Ahead of celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2030, the Covent Garden museum — which opened inside the Victorian flower market building in March 1980 — has revealed plans for a "once in a generation" glow-up.

These include a 'new' entrance on Covent Garden Piazza (technically the current entrance is already on the Piazza, via the gift shop, but the mock-up above suggests use will be made of an existing adjacent doorway.)
