I'd thought that the only new work (aside from resignalling and re-

If the work is at the north end of the platforms it's the Crossrail
interchange subways, which the board papers (or some similar document)
say are being put in during the current closure.

The Crossrail platforms will be to the north of the District Line.


Fascinating - and of course utterly sensible. Though a potential
physical legacy to the best laid plans gone wrong should the Cross
dosh not materialise...
