BRTA has supported the reopening to passenger services of the Dudding Hill Lines, not just as a localised 'London' centric idea, but also - hence the dual use and versatility of railways - for a Luton Airport Parkway Station to Heathrow and Reading alternatively 'South Chilterns Link' avoiding changing in London and freeing up for capacity across the network. Likewise we want a rebuild of Kentish Town to Gospel Oak curve for integration with Thameslink Sutton Loop-Barking potentially or Stratford at least? We need support, we need volunteers and welcome donations/people to join.
London suffers from chronic congestion, the South East of which London is a part, is overheating, pollution rife and the public are being made ill by roads and the vehicle pollution congestion compounds. Given substantial growth and development - if we do not have the rail-base transport solutions, the negatives get worse. Therefore please email your MP to support our calls and ensure a switch from road to rail spending for schemes like these to be better developed, used and multiplied. LRT/Trams for Central London and the West End and also extension of Docklands along the North Circular corridor for linking East London with Brent Cross Shopping Centre and the new Brent Cross Railway Station on the Midland Main Line, would again give people quicker, cleaner and healthier choices to gridlocked, pollution exposure which is a daily issues.
We need a chairperson for the meeting and should convene 3-4 times a year. If we want a venue, we need funds or sponsorship to pay for it and a kind volunteer to help organise it with us. Thank you.
