Wow, that looks the first bit of external cladding.
It is.
From that article:
Taylor Woodrow, part of Vinci Construction UK, will redevelop the station used by 1.3m passengers a year, by spring 2019.
Looks like the revamped stadium will be 8 or 9 months late. I wonder what, if any, effect that will have on the stadium capacity prior to the new station opening.
Fairly sure the article goes on to say that the station will continue to be in use for the majority of the upgrade works so hopefully its formal completion date will have no impact, the introduction of the new trains I assume will be in advance of the 2019 deadline and will be the big help in terms of get more fans in and out on match day...
I'm just not sure that they would bring in the longer trains in advance of the platform being lengthened, it would be a safety issue. Certainly once the works are completed it will be a big help.
True, maybe the platform will be lengthened early in the schedule and it will be the lifts and cosmetic changes that will drag the schedule out at the end? pure guess work on my par; but since no one has jumped on the news with a negative spurs stadium story (which i am sure a lot of papers would love the chance to do!) I am taking an optimistic view... we seem to have a good group on the site with knowledge so maybe someone will be able to speak with more authority
