So I hopped in with a young Forest fan and her mate and another guy who lived in Colchester and we were all trying to cobble together.

164 for the cab they were telling everyone to stay over in Ipswich and just buy cabs to wherever you lived my cab from Ipswich to Twickenham was £300 if I wanted to do that but I didn't trust them to reimburse me quickly so I didn't take that option but the amount of money it must have cost Greater Anglia was huge after that big football game at Ipswich

Tony SandbachHOST
14:24
A Greater Anglia spokesperson said, subject to final testing, the lifts are expected to be operational in November.
Tony SandbachHOST

Tony SandbachHOST
14:43
The project, the first of its kind in the UK, was funded through the Government's Access for All scheme to improve accessibility at the station, including the installation of two lifts to provide step-free access between platforms.
Tony SandbachHOST

People don't realise how inaccessible the world is until they get a disability, or even a temporary disability like a broken leg or something.
Tony SandbachHOST
15:24
But for someone like me, who is constantly having to evaluate and adapt my plans, having to tackle those stairs is so frustrating.
Tony SandbachHOST
15:33
Other residents and commuters have raised concerns about the delays, with some describing Greater Anglia's lack of communication around the project as embarrassing.
Tony SandbachHOST
15:42
Resident Andrew Hall said, It's like they don't want to talk about it because they know it's embarrassing.

However, the scale of growth planned at Meridian Water requires a clear pathway to four trains per hour.
MelHOST

This will require targeted infrastructure investment and wider network capacity enhancements." The dispatch approached both the Mayor's office in Greater Anglia, the recently nationalized operator of Meridian Water Station, for responses to the concerns raised.
MelHOST
43:44
A spokesperson for Khan said, "The Mayor is aware of the concerns raised by Meridian Water residents, and his deputy mayor for transport will meet with Councillor Georgiou to discuss the asks for Greater Anglia, who operate the station and its services.
MelHOST
44:00
The Mayor recognizes that Londoners need more homes in the right places with connections to jobs and other local services.
MelHOST

His draft London plan makes clear that housing delivery and economic growth is only possible with investment in transport and other crucial infrastructure.
MelHOST
44:17
That's why he's working closely with government on possible rail devolution projects across London that could bring substantial benefits to local communities in addition to supporting significant housing delivery.
MelHOST
44:31
The Mayor will continue doing everything in his power to drive vital investment and sustainable growth across the capital as we build a better, fairer, more prosperous London for everyone." A Greater Anglia spokesperson said, "We will work with other stakeholders and other partners, including TFL, Transport for London, and local councils to try and secure the funding and investment that would enable the improvements that the council has set out as future aspirations." Also concerned about the lack of improvements at Meridian Water is Selina Doswell, vice-chair of local residents group REACT.

She said, "We have repeatedly questioned why a station of this size lacks a drop-off point.
