==Transport==
[[File:Lewisham.jpg|thumb|250px|[[Lewisham Station]], an important transport hub]]
[[Lewisham station]], once known as Lewisham Junction, is located at the junction of the lines to [[Dartford]] and [[Hayes, Bromley|Hayes]], and is also the terminus of the southern branch of the [[Docklands Light Railway]].

The [[East London Line]] (on the [[London Underground]] network) terminated at [[New Cross railway station|New Cross]] and [[New Cross Gate railway station|New Cross Gate]] until December 2007. An extension to this line opened on 23 May 2010, serving [[Brockley railway station|Brockley]], [[Honor Oak Park]], [[Forest Hill, London|Forest Hill]], and [[Sydenham, London|Sydenham]]. This forms part of the [[London Overground]] network.

The [[South London Line]] runs along the extreme North West of the borough, at present there are no stations that are within the borough. There is a proposal for a new station at {{rws|New Bermondsey}} providing a link to [[Clapham Junction railway station|Clapham Junction]].

===London Underground===

There are no Tube stations currently in the borough, as the [[East London Line]] has been part of London Overground since 2006. However, an [[Bakerloo line extension|extension of the Bakerloo line]] beyond [[Elephant & Castle tube station|Elephant & Castle]] to Lewisham and Hayes has been proposed.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Bakerloo line extension |url=https://www.tfl.gov.uk/corporate/about-tfl/how-we-work/planning-for-the-future/bakerloo-line-extension |website=Transport for London}}</ref>
