Not so easy if the tube runs under the Thames in a spot with no road crossings.


I'm still surprised by reports that journey times to West London have been increased. The LB services may take a couple of minutes longer due to the changes to the timetable, but there are additional services to Victoria at peak times and the addition of the ELL, which should allow for faster interchange to the Jubilee line, should mean cheaper and more frequent services to every part of London.

I had always expected people heading for Bond Street and West London would be the largest group advantaged by the ELL. Clearly I'm missing something.
