Default Thameslink 2000 Blackfriars

Not sure if this has been posted before but the below link shows
Network Rails current thinking on TL2000. If I'm reading it right the
re-opened enquiry will limit itself to the three areas that were not
acceptable to the original enquiry chairman ie.

* Substandard designs for London Bridge
* No reinstatement plans for Borough Market
* Detailed (But relatively minor) objections to Blackfriars station

The first of these should be mittigated by the new London Bridge
masterplan.

Reinstatement plans have now been drawn up for Borough Market (Will
these be acceptable?)

Detailed changes to Blackfriars (eg. cutting the projected OHLE to City
Thameslink) which will improve the look of the station.

Therefore it seems that the whole scheme rests on whether the designs
by Network Rails Architect, Jestico & Whiles for the Borough Market
re-instatement are going to be accepted. However J&W was also the
practice that LUL contracted for their twice rejected Camden Town
re-development...
