Some residents who live above the proposed line of the Crossrail tunnels
are concerned about possible noise and vibration in their homes when the
trains are running. Is there anyone on utl who lives or works directly
above an existing tube (not sub-surface) tunnel? If so, do you
experience
any noise and vibration?

Similarly, have you had any cracks and subsidence? There was a report
in
March 2002 that the land above the line of the JLE had sunk by the odd
centimetre.

Anybody who wishes to experience this sort of thing only has to pop into
the
"Salisbury" pub on Green Lanes between Manor House & Turnpike Lane for a
couple of pints. Sit by the fireplace on the Manor House side of the pub
and
revel in the Piccadilly Rumble.

The North Star on the Finchley Road is good for this too, the Metropolitan
line runs a few feet below the cellar floor.
