Something which had escaped my attention and which not much fuss seems

on its preliminary findings having considered petitions related to the
Crossrail Bill, and the main issue is that they are requiring CLRL to
add a station at Woolwich to the Bill.


That sounds like a really good idea IMO, thanks for spotting that Dave.
I dare say there hasn't been any chat about it here as utl doesn't have
any contributors from down Woolwich way.


There was an article about this in the South London Press the other
day:

If a station is built at Woolwich, what will happen to the proposed
Abbey Wood station? Would it remain, or would the two stations be
considered too close together?
