But is there any reason why the current track from Westferry to West
India couldn't be left in place for emergencies and quiet times?


1. There isn't a current track from Westferry to West India Quay
(apart from the flyover)
2. At time of writing, there isn't a current track from West India
Quay to Westferry of any kind (apart from going the wrong way over the
flyover).
3. The flyover and dive-under route avoiding West India Quay will only
be used at peak times.
4. It turns out I was completely wrong about the interim state.
They're going to turn Westferry Junction into a flat junction and
demolish the flyover, exactly as you described.
