Was a grade separated Metropolitan Junction



can't see the point of a flyover at Metropolitan Junction, and I can't
see




I read the article today and echo the comments upthread, I thought
Met.Jn. conflicts are effectively eliminated by proposed works east of
LB.

At the back of my mind there was a proposal a *very* VERY long time
ago for grade seperating Met.Jn. but I think this goes right back to
early TL2000 ideas even before they called it TL2000 and bears no
resemblance to the present project.

I thought so too. I understood the route would have been to the south of the
present line but was now impossible because the Jubilee extension ran along
the same alignment and no longer provided a safe support!
