I received an e-mail today from TfL about further closures of the
Highbury to Shadwell route for Crossrail works. This one is for the
30th July to 7th August.

How many more of these are there going to be, and when are they going
to work out a better rail replacement service between Whitechapel and
Shadwell (the route is tortuously slow due to one way systems, limited
access, traffic calming mechanisms, appalling parking and so on).


There isn't really any other route. The parking situation down New Road
in particular is very bad.


Why can't they put in temporary restrictions, or vigorously enforce
whatever restrictions there already are during these periods?
