Does anyone know when the phase 2 of the ELL is sue for completion? How frequently can we expect trains from Peckham Rye?

All it says on TFL is that it's late 2012, I'm desperate for it as it will cut my lengthy journey to Shepherd's Bush/Acton in two.

There's another response on your other post - not sure if you've seen it?

We asked a station manager (or some such, not certain of job title) at Peckham Rye before Christmas and she said Spring 2012, it was ahead of schedule and would certainly be up and running before Olympics. Hope she knew what she was talking about, it will make a huge difference to journey times...

All sounds very promising. Thanks Sidhue, I seem to have missed the other thread

Brilliant! Similar to ellieaness, this'll massively help with my journey to & from Shep Bush.

At the last demonstration in Peckham Rye station, (in the Summer); they advised it would be running from Christmas 2012, as there are major stuctural changes to be made to the platform 1 & 2; as they will be removing the office and the waiting room to allow for the extra crowd capacity. They should be running every 10 minutes.

Amazing. I was Boris I'd ensure it was delivered before the London mayoral elections in arly may.

James,

I don't think Boris had a choice in the matter since the ELLX2 was subjected to the Comprehensive Spending Review in 2010 and consequently the projected completion date delayed until the end of 2012. All of these information are in the public domain btw.

The current work is running under budget and ahead of schedule. All good news so far.
