Instead we get a fraudulent suggestion that "people keep bringing up" the
closing of Westfield. I'm not aware of anyone citing it apart from myself. Then
we have a pointless counter question. This is followed by an irrelevant Tfl
apologia: that they had already planned to use the West Ham/Greenway
escape route. So what? people who wanted to travel by Jubilee or Central Line
had by default chosen not to go via West Ham, and being suddenly obliged to use
a different route involving walking quite some way does not constitute zero impact.
And if TfL knew in advance that Stratford Station would not be able cope, why had
they not done something about it when rebuilding the station during the preceding years?
Finally we have a completely irrelevant paragraph about buses at Stratford Station
even though TfL had not recommended that people travel by bus as an alternative
to the Jubilee or Central Line.
