Later Tube services on Hainault loop
Passengers on the Central line's Hainault loop received a major boost today
when London Underground (LU) announced that from 19 November services will
operate beyond 8pm between Hainault to Woodford via Roding Valley.

The improvements are part of Transport for London's (TfL's) £10bn Investment
Programme to meet London's transport needs, now and in the future.

At present, Central line services do not serve Grange Hill, Chigwell and Roding
Valley stations after 8pm and have not done so for many years.

A new timetable for the Central line will be introduced later this year on 19
November.

One of the major benefits will be that Tube services will operate between
Hainault to Woodford via Roding Valley beyond the current 8pm finishing time
until close of passenger service.

Jeff Ellis, General Manager, Central line said: "London Underground is working
hard to improve the Tube and constantly monitors customer demand to ensure that
our services meet passenger needs.

"The new Central line timetable to be introduced later this year will allow us
to respond to growing local demand for later services to run between Hainault
and Woodford via Roding Valley.

"It is our intention to operate this service for the foreseeable future and we
hope it will prove popular with passengers."

AIUI, This was due to the Chigwell NIMBYs, how did things change?

They moved away.

An LU staff member once said that the same NIMBYs forced the retention
of a 20mph TSR in the Chigwell area even after the formation was
repaired to permit full speed traversal.

Birds of a feather?

Since when do LU have to get permission from nearby residents before
they can remove a TSR?
