Amongst a number of points covered in SoS Hammond's announcement this
morning was this one: ---quote--- Today, I can confirm we will fund and deliver the Thameslink programme in its entirety, virtually doubling the number of north-south trains running through central London at peak times. But the original programme for the rebuilding of London Bridge was always ambitious, with substantial risks around delivery, and operation of existing services, during construction. To reduce these risks, we have re-profiled the delivery of the programme to achieve completion in 2018. This will enable Network Rail to make further efficiencies to their design and delivery programme. ---/quote--- Source: http://www.dft.gov.uk/press/speeches...ammond20101125 So, it appears as though the whole shebang will go ahead as originally envisaged, i.e. including Key Output 2 (of which the extensive Bermondsey dive-unders on the approaches to London Bridge are a part, for instance). |
