The pictures, taken on 1st September show that
progress is continuing at the fast rate we are becoming used
to. The projected opening time of early 2006 that seemed so
optimistic when the work started must now seem quite feasible
even to the most die-hard cynic!
The new pictures, taken on 23rd March 2006 show that the site
in full swing.
One worrying aspect of this is that, despite the
fact that only half the premises are open and it's not a busy
time - midday on a Thursday, nearly all the car parking spaces
are taken.
Unfortunately, this looks like another piece of poor
planning, just like the Island Green site. Surely it's time to
recognise the need either for more car parking facilities or
the development of other solutions such as permanent and efficient
park and ride schemes. |
