    Waterloo upgrade

    Anyone (TFL contractors) have any inside info on if this is going to finish on schedule or is it going out to the right - and if so by how much?

    Need to know whether to get a season ticket for Sept or extend pass for clientco car park.

    Thanks.

      Well, it's pretty useless at the minute, and I doubt it will improve for a long time. The Wife (tm) was working in the big smoke yesterday. Finished at 4.30pm should have been home by 5.30. Took until 7.30, due to Waterloo and the clusterf@ that is Southern.

          Well if South Western Railway are as good as Great Western Railway then you need to extend your pass for Clientco carpark.

            It's due to finish on Monday:

            This summer, between 5 and 28 August inclusive, fewer South Western Railway services will run while work starts to extend platforms at London Waterloo
            However I'm not brimming with confidence that it won't overrun. I'll see how it is on Tuesday.

            See you next Tuesday...

              Friday is going to be particularly bad. Four more platforms being closed.

              I bought a first class season this month at a cost of nearly a thousand quid so at least I would be delayed in comfort.

                    she said she would at be at my place by 5 , she got there at 3:30. Apparently Brillo was quicker than expected.
