Old Oak Common (2)

  • Reference: 2014/4023
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 22 October 2014
Would you consider the new Great Western train depot is moved slightly south, to allow a West London Line viaduct to be built alongside the Great Western Main Line?

Old Oak Common (1)

  • Reference: 2014/4022
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 22 October 2014
Do you want to maintain the current link at Old Oak Common to the 'New North Main Line' (the railway through Greenford that lies above the HS2 tunnel)? Do you agree that a chord from the proposed Crossrail Dudding Hill line loop provides a means, at last, of achieving that?

Barking Riverside (10)

  • Reference: 2014/4021
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 22 October 2014
Will you investigate the possibility of a London Overground station where the C2C line passes under the A13 dual carriageway, half-way between Barking and Riverside stations? This would be accessible from disadvantaged communities on both sides of the A13, linking them on foot for the first time.

Barking Riverside (9)

  • Reference: 2014/4020
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 22 October 2014
Do you acknowledge that a better, eastern approach alignment from the C2C line would allow a basement-level instead of a viaduct Barking Riverside station, and the crucial ability to tunnel under the Thames at a later date from the riverside industrial land to the west?

Barking Riverside (8)

  • Reference: 2014/4019
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 22 October 2014
There were plans for three DLR stations, so is one London Overground station at the Barking Riverside district centre enough for the whole housing estate?

Barking Riverside (7)

  • Reference: 2014/4018
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 22 October 2014
Will you safeguard all alignments necessary to build a cross-Thames rail tunnel at Barking Riverside, and include in such plans the continued use of all short-term infrastructure that is constructed?

Barking Riverside (6)

  • Reference: 2014/4017
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 22 October 2014
Can an east-facing junction to the C2C line be added at a later date?

Barking Riverside (5)

  • Reference: 2014/4016
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 22 October 2014
Will your already planned Barking Riverside link be suitable for freight traffic?

Barking Riverside (4)

  • Reference: 2014/4015
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 22 October 2014
Do you see scope for freight trains using a Barking Riverside rail tunnel under the Thames, the only one (other than HS1) east of the West London Line?

Barking Riverside (3)

  • Reference: 2014/4014
  • Question by: Fiona Twycross
  • Meeting date: 22 October 2014
Do you agree that Platform 1 at Barking station already provides a terminus if the Riverside link is disrupted, and that a bypassed viaduct station really would have no function at all, rather like Island Gardens high-level DLR station?
