Unless you want to go the Dome, lets call it what it is, who goes to
North Greenwich.


It's one of the most heavily used stations on the tube.


Yup. Loads and loads of buses go from there to outside the tube station
to Woolwich, Blackheath, Charlton, Plumstead....I regularly get the tube
from Canary Wharf to Stratford, and the tube empties substantially at
North Greenwich, regardless of events at the O2....


Agreed. It's a very significant bus hub. The total number of entries
and exits for North Greenwich in 2008 was 17.76 million.

I wonder whether there'll be a bit of a shift towards people using
Southeastern's "Metro" mainline services in those parts of SE London
now than Oyster PAYG is accepted.

Also, off on a tangent, North Greenwich station should really have
been named Greenwich Peninsula!
