Proceeding contribution from Lord Bradshaw (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 26 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Crossrail Bill.


Crossrail Bill

I support the noble Lord, Lord Hanningfield, because we are all well aware that there have been some disgraceful delays and closures because of overrunning work. That is mostly unnecessary if the work is planned properly and professionally well in advance. The noble Lord, Lord Hanningfield, is right to draw attention to this and, through the Minister, to draw to the attention of the promoters the need to behave to neighbours in a neighbourly fashion so that train services into places such as Liverpool Street and Paddington are not disrupted by overrunning engineering work.
