Default More Crossrail (South Western) options

These are being floated as options 5 and 6 by the London Borough
of Hounslow, whose previous options 3 and 4 were presumably rejected.

They relate to the tunnelled route SW of Paddington.

Summary:
Proposed new tunnel alignment.

Proposed new Crossrail station at the Vale, Acton.

Proposed new station at Chiswick Business Park, with District, Picc, NLL and
Crossrail services in three directions (Paddington/East London, Richmond/Kingston,
Brentford/Hounslow) However, a Picc/District/NLL station here was ruled out here a
couple of years ago because LU refused to consider stopping Picc trains there.

Proposed new Crossrail station behind Chiswick Village.

Proposed retention of District Line at Gunnersbury, Kew and Richmond.

Proposed closure of Chiswick Park and South Acton due to proximity with new
Chiswick Business Park station.

No need to dig up Chiswick Back Common.
