The newsletters you link to, below, all say 2010.

The fit out work has been accelerated by 3 months bringing completion
back in to 2009.


Looking forward to that news appearing in a newsletter, then


As Mr Thant has stated the public message has not changed. I doubt that
it will until much closer to the time when it becomes certain that the
revised target date will be met. Plenty can go wrong between now and
year end in terms of equipping the new ticket hall, integrating it with
the rest of the LU complex and getting it in to service. Digging holes
and filling them with concrete structures is a relatively simple task.


In which case perhaps it's a bit optimistic to go round saying it'll
open in December?
