I was on a school trip today, and I was on from Stratford to Island Gardens, so I had the opportunity to talk to the PSA. He told me that the diveunder will be used from 24th August as that is when a new timetable comes in.

The current timetable would work better than it does if they were using the diveunder. Trains from Stratford always have to wait at Delta Junction for a train from Bank. I'm sure that this isn't just because there is only one southbound platform at West India Quay, because it didn't seem to happen for several months after platform 1 was closed.

Thats exactly what I said to the driver from Stratford to Poplar, and he said that it will only be used for delays - which I doubted.
Then when a different PSA came on at Poplar, he told me about what I previously said

Limehouse is finished and is in use (kind of)
Westferry seems finished but passengers cannot go on to the new part of the platform

Limehouse is finished and is in use (kind of) What exactly do you mean by 'kind of'? Is the WB platform extension in use yet? |

I think there is still some work going on with the stairs at Westferry and Limehouse Docklanders may recall the garden centre that used to be beneath the arches under Limehouse DLR westbound platforms, which was a local focus for many to go and buy their Christmas trees. We went there in 2007, then again at Christmas 2008, but to find that it had gone and the site was being worked on for the platform extension. I just passed by a few days ago for a 2009 tree, to see if the garden centre ever came back, to find that there was still work in progress. That's over 12 months work to add 2 cars to the platform. Good thing they weren't doing a 6-car platform, they would still be on site after the Olympics. |
