Shepherd's Bush Central Line station closure
I have seen no publicity for the closure at short notice of this station
for eight months from February 2nd: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/corporate/medi...ntre/6871.aspx Should they not use this opportunity to build a pedestrian tunnel to the WLL station? -- Thoss |

I expect the purpose of the closure is simply to get the work finished in time (for the shopping centre opening) in accordance with the existing plans, becasue they've suddenly realised its getting close. Introducing a new requirement is the last thing they need now. We've never really got to the bottom of why direct interchange hasn't been provided, but given that the WLL station han't met the basic spec for platform depth/width, perhaps more tunnels were a complication too far anyway...
