The three-year delay to Crossrail is damaging London

Caroline spoke to ITV's Simon Harris on the admission by Transport for London that they believe Crossrail’s central section will open no earlier than Autumn of 2021 and with the Eastern and Western branches only opening well into 2022!

Caroline said:

This makes for a depressing start to the New Year for Londoners and everyone who relies on London's transport network.

Crossrail is now going to open - the first bit of it - three years late, probably up to £3bn over budget.

That's damaging to London as a city. And it's going to mean other projects get pushed further and further back into the future.
