Stratford to North Woolwich

I see this journey is no longer available in the NR Journey planner after 09 Dec 06. I know that there is a need to close the line at some date 'no sooner than 01 Nov 06', presumably the timetable change date has now been confirmed, and the following links show the 'proposals'.... http://www.londontravelwatch.org.uk/...nt.php?id=2081 http://www.londontravelwatch.org.uk/...nt.php?id=2085 Do the formal closure procedures now also require notices at stations etc, or can the service just be amended out of the public timetable? Paul I can't give you a thorough answer but I can provide some background information. As you possibly know already 10 December is the date when the GB railway timetable change happens - the NLL Stratford to North Woolwich service didn't have to be withdrawn when the timetable change happens, but it's a convenient, 'natural' break point. The second Travelwatch page you give (id=2085) - the proposed closures notice on a teal background - was displayed as a poster at all North London Line (NLL) stations in November/December 2005. On a fairly recent journey on the NLL from Custom House to Stratford I looked out for but didn't see any information about the withdrawal of service. Perhaps that's changed - I'd imagine Silverlink is obliged to put up some kind of notice near the time, and it would be common courtesy for them to do so to anyway! I may be down that way later this week - if so I'll look out for any new information on display. |
