That sounds about right to me. I had another look at the bridge site
on Monday and the wires were back up and everything looked finished,
but further west there were lots of men in orange jackets milling
around (though no sign of any tools or equipment), and the OHLE
looked untouched.


And yet a few minutes ago (Wednesday evening), BBC News 24's reporter
was still blaming the delay in re-opening Liverpool Street on "late
completion of a bridge demolition". Can you believe *anything* that BBC
TV News says these days?
