The problem with doing that at this point is that major construction work involving removal of the existing trackways and construction of the ramps would have to be done between 2 pairs of active in service tracks not to mention the necessity to constructing an extremely deep level subway infrastructure beneath the exiting CPW subway shell. Such construction would very likely compromise the integrity of the existing CPW subway shell to the point of making it a t best prohibitively expensive and at worst impossible or highly impractical. Even if such a connection could be practicably built, the connection would still have to filter any new service in between the 2 existing local services and 2 existing express services where capacity for any new service really doesn't exist. |
