Long planned. Finished in time so the line's open for carnival Monday.

Well thats good , as long as they get their priorities right. Never mind
people who need to commute to work so long as all the muggers , gang members
and other lowlife can get to their yearly knees up on time.


But the work was always going to need more than just the three days of
a Bank Holiday weekend. Better to be closed for Thursday to Sunday
when the carnival is on, but the general network is quieter during the
week (the couple of days before the August Bank Holiday are less busy
than normal) than a Friday to Monday long weekend at a busier time of
year. There are a LOT of tourists and non-lowlife who attend the
carnival.
