Bus services in North Woolwich
Whilst making a short visit to the North Woolwich Railway Museum
(excellent place, highly recommended!) I noticed that in terms of bus
services, King George V station is in a pretty rotten location. Despite
the windswept desolation of the remaining NR-owned platform at North
Woolwich, the station does enjoy very good bus links in the Foot Tunnel
plaza.
Is the materials staging area to the north of King George V close
enough to a major road to allow it to be redeveloped into a bus
station, thus replacing the one at the Foot Tunnel plaza? Or is it
expected that when the Woolwich extension is opened, the bus routes
serving the Foot Tunnel plaza will be emptied of cross-river passengers
who have boarded at one of the other stations on the Woolwich branch?
