The unusual site banners are to bring attention to the fact that Labour activists in Bexley are manipulating Facebook Groups with fictional posters. They deny it, threaten police action for ‘harassing’ a fictitious character and then demonstrate their willingness to impersonate by creating a false Administrator account in my name. The banner on display is chosen randomly from a selection of three, with a fourth bearing the familiar Bexley Council is Bonkers logo.
6 December (Part 2) - Lots of Crossrail progress at Abbey Wood. Pity about the train service
It’s not two weeks since
the new North Kent line track reached the end of the new
Abbey Wood station platform and now it’s laid all the way through.
Scroll through the
latest pictures (99 images, 8MB) to see not only the track progress but the extension
of the supports for the sound reduction barrier, the filling of the massive hole
at the end of Wilton Road, the interminable piling and confirmation that Teresa O’Neill (Orator Belies Exactitude) was
talking rot when she reported a month ago
that Felixstowe Road was back to normal apart from its temporary road surface.
The massive metal tubes that are being pushed ten metres into the ground as part of the station building
foundations are there mainly to keep the bore hole from collapsing when the concrete is poured in.
The ground above the ten metre deep strata of clay is far from stable.
In due course the piles will be covered by a metre thick concrete raft. When
that happens the station will rise from the mud.
Before that happens there will be another six consecutive weekends of line closures in the new year.
A good start to the New Year. No trains for the first six weekends. Click to rotate.
