Bakerloo line extension consultation


tube_roundel_950

A public consultation on the proposed extension of the Tube’s Bakerloo line is to be launched this week.
Transport for London has drawn up options for extending the line from Elephant & Castle to Lewisham, with one route serving Old Kent Road and an alternative running via Camberwell and Peckham.
Michèle Dix, TfL’s Managing Director of Planning, has also said the line could be connected with the rail line to Hayes “which would mean existing rail services would no longer operate on this line, but the Bakerloo line would operate instead.”
A further option allows for the line to be extended to Beckenham Junction to connect with the Tramlink or Bromley town centre.

The consultation will run from Tuesday 30th September until 7 December 2014 and will be available available at www.tfl.gov.uk/bakerloo-extension.
LERA members may also want to sign a petition in favour of the extension by following the link below :-
