Once the packages arrive at Liverpool Street, they will be
distributed to
their final destinations around the city by electric van or cargo
bikes.

Whatever happened to the very similar sounding scheme a couple of
years
ago to deliver packages to Euston in the small hours, and have them
distributed by electric vans?

That was a one-off concept demonstration, back in June 2014. It was
organised by a consultancy (Intermodality) with Colas Rail and TNT.
The
demo proved that the idea was workable, but my guess is that the
economics
weren't favourable at the time.

Economics is a very big component of "workable".

Not in most dictionaries.


You can make almost anything "work" if you throw enough money at it.


Now you're just arguing for argument's sake.


its' what he does

you knew that already
