The Canary Wharf Tube Station was opened on 17 September, 1999 by London mayor Ken Livingstone. Since then, over 40 million people have been using the station every year, making it the busiest London Underground station outside of Central London, and also the busiest Underground station served by only a single line. It is also in the vicinity of the Canary Wharf DLR Station and Heron Quays DLR Station of the Docklands Light Railway.

The surface entrance of the Canary Wharf Tube Station, which is separated from the Canary Wharf DLR Station of the Docklands Light Railway, comprises two curved glass canopies at the east and west ends of the station, allowing natural light to penetrate into the ticket hall below. Between these canopies is a public park. Under this is the vast station concourse. The platforms are equipped with platform screen doors, safeguarding the safety of the commuters from falling onto the tracks.
