"One priority will be to forge a tram link between the station and
Bluewater shopping centre. Another is to extend the current Oyster card
system out to Ebbsfleet

Extending Oyster to HS1 between St Pancras and Stratford would be a
start!

Thy specifically don't want you to use HS1 for this journey so it will
never happen

Even more so for Ebbsfleet I'd have thought. There's a ten quid premium on
the Anytime fare for using HS1.

I agree that the premium to EF is a bit too high, but it can't be to price
people off the HS service

there is no other alternative way of getting there
