    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    Eurostar - links with other transport modes The design of the new Stratford International station for Eurostar is such that it will involve passengers in a 500 metre walk to reach the Stratford public transport interchange for Tube, DLR and bus. What plans does TfL have to overcome this ludicrous situation - can some kind of transit shuttle be built?

    • Meeting date: 14 January 2004
    I noted the near £100 million projected underspend on the Private Finance Initiative (PFI) contracts and the PPP contracts, but, ever attempting to be fair, was not going to hold you responsible for the whole of that.
