Oh come on, this is a "new" metro line in London linking to a huge
business district, not some speculative tram system in a midlands town.
Anyone who didn't see it coming was frankly an idiot.


In your view with hindsight. No-one previously thought of Shoreditch as
"linking to a huge business district".


I take it you're not aware that shortditch high street station is all of
300m from liverpool street and that canada water is one stop on the jubilee
line from canary wharf?

Any transport planners that couldn't see that a link from highbury and south
london to these destinations would be popular, frankly should consider a
new career.
