So, are they going to rename the project Thameslink 2017 (which is when
it might actually be finished)?


According to the Network Rail/Thameslink Project Representative, The
route layout and signalling haven't change , in fact have the go
ahead. It is just the final designs of London Bridge and Blackfriars
station and the restoration of Borough Market Area that need an
inquiry. And as all issues have now been addressed it is just a
formality. So the project is in effect the same, so will still be
called Thameslink 2000.

So a formality takes four years just to get through the bureaucracy;
How much longer if someone raises an objection?
