It's over a decade since these opened and they have been absolute rubbish since day one. Frequent breakdowns and failures and at least one lot of major repairs requiring hoardings and and lots of bits being stripped down at cetera. Here we are in 2023 and at least two have been long-term off for several weeks. Granted we've had Christmas and and as has been talked about in another thread earlier today de-ale lot of the spare parts for these are probably made in countries that have gone into lockdown for prolonged periods as soon as somebody so much as sniffs or even stand too long next to the Kleenex in the chemist. But notwithstanding any of this, is it not time I'm these awful machines were simply condemned and replaced with more robust equipment which we know is out there, look at the London underground as a prime example of a super hard-wearing machine that just keeps going with regular maintenance
The frequent outages put a note in considerable strain on the the 2 passenger lifts from station to street which are already inadequate at busy times especially high peak tourist and festival season.
