This only applies to freight from the Tilbury direction. The NLL is
still going to be the most practical route for GEML freight. See the
diagram hehttp://londonconnections.blogspot.co...ground-disrupt...

A lot of other current NLL traffic could not easily be diverted away.
We're a long way from it being a segregated passenger route.

Well, if TPTB were so inclined, a (relatively) simple bridged curve
could connect the GEML slows to the Goblin:

....I think there's ample room.

Just out of interest, what sort of "other current" traffic does the
NLL have, other than passengers, GEML freight, and Tilbury freight
(which I'm guessing includes all chunnel traffic)? I can't think of
anything else.
