Default Olympic bid transport proposals

There will be faster and more frequent services with 10 trains an
hour between King's Cross and Stratford.

Chickenfeed, even if they manage 1,000 people a train. (3% of the
total above).


I thought this was rather odd too. Maybe they mean 32,000, and are
including ALL modes (buses, CTRL domestics, tube, overground rail, DLR
extension to Int'l, cycling & walking!)


Looking at it again, I see they are expecting 80,000 an hour by train at
Stratford. That's a more realistic 80tph (on essentially 6 lines: JLE,
Central, DLR, Silverlink, CRTL and "Eastern Region").

The remaining 240,000 an hour must be walking or going by bus.

They will need a lot more gates for that number!
