Hi all,

According to
http://www.chilternrailways.co.uk/pa...s/projects.asp , it will
take 15 months to build and will complete in April 2005, so it should be
under construction by now. I can't say I've noticed, but if it's on the
north side of the railway it would be part of the Stadium construction
site so wouldn't necessarily be discernable from the surrounding roads..
ANyone know more?


It's actually on the south side between Wembley Stadium station and Neasden,
however access is via the stadium site.

Quite a lot of work recently, temporary bridge over the line, much earth
moving .

There has been quite a bit of slippage in the work (for several reasons) so
the date quoted may be wrong unless it was set recently.


Its coming along quickly. Lots of work going on.

I thought the new bridge over the line might have something to do with
access to the Stadium for matchdays?
I know that they are planning to build a new way off the station which
runs to the stadium (and only the stadium) like they have in other
parts of the country such as Cardiff...
