What an eccentric question! What makes you think I will complain if they
finish a project early?


Your comments just upthread, that's what!
Your imagination has got the better of you. Nothing in my earlier posts suggests I would be sorry if TfL ever completed a project early.

Incidentally nothing in those posts suggests I think they will make a mess of this project either. I assume the project will eventually be completed in such a way that a reasonable service will be provided. I just doubt that it will be completed quickly or at a sensible cost.

Absolutely correct. Well said. The central point is of course that TfL
did not want to improve the flow of traffic there and does not want to
improve it anywhere else either. The scheme at Henly's Corner is a
complete waste of time and public money..


Yes, I can't see how it will make any difference. The limiting factor at
that location are the traffic lights. Adding a single extra lane for 50m
- which seems to be what they're doing unless I've misread it - will make
sod all difference.
