Posted by Kew Gardens Teleport on Tue Oct 26 09:00:37 2010, in response to Re: London's five-year plan, posted by Dand124 on Mon Oct 25 22:35:36 2010. · Thames Gateway Bridge to link Greenwich and NewhamScrapped. · Air-cooled tube trains Only on S Stock, which technically aren't tube trains. · East London line extension to Dalston, Croydon and Crystal Palace This did happen, despite not being a very good idea. · Completion of 'showpiece' Wembley Park station "Showpiece" is ghastly marketing speak, but this did happen. · Extending Metropolitan line to Watford Junction Still waiting. · Completion of switch to low-floor buses with CCTV by 2006 I think they did this. I don't really pay much attention to CCTV. · Introduction of low-emission zone by 2007 It was February 2008, but we can give them that one. · New pedestrian crossings and street lighting This is a non-promise promise. Street furniture is replaced all the time. · New security measures for overground trains and stations Errmm... · Enhanced cycle network This is still laughable. · Initiatives to encourage more walking No doubt they held something so they could claim this was true. · Possible extension of congestion charge westwards Yes, and now they want to scrap the westward extension. · Energy-saving and noise reduction on London Underground This might be marketing guff about S Stock. Who knows... |
