Battersea Power Station
 

So, redevelopment is promised yet again!

but what is this about a "dedicated rail link from Victoria Station"
or a "light-rail scheme"?

Anyone know?

Might mean the planned upgrade of the station near there.

One would hope that they will not *just* concentrate on redevelopment of
Battersea Park station on the South Central lines but also take the
opportunity to integrate it with Queenstown Road (virtually next door) on
the South Western lines, to maximise access from the south of London without
the need to change trains.

Possibly because nothing has changed?

It started to take up my whole life and gave little back. It was started at
an exciting time, with the Jubilee Line Extension, the DLR Lewisham
Extension and Tramlink all under construction, but that time seems passed. I
watched councils putting funding bids in for the same good schemes year
after year and being turned down. I sent too many emails and letters to
councils and TfL and rarely got even a compliment slip back. I am much too
busy at the moment to even think about kickstarting it, although that might
change some time in the not too distant future.

Many congratulations for a good site though - most of it is still very
relevant and certainly gives a good background to the long-winded nature of
London's transport planning! Anyway, I've found that keeping abreast of
things on this newsgroup is as good as the regular updates on your site
were - maybe worth adding a link to the uk.transport.london Google group
from it?
