I'm sure the Romans didn't put signs up saying it would be built in a day though...
And as for "all my fellow TfW travellers," which I'm sure was aimed at my Manchester location, I was one of those (near Llandaf) until the autumn just gone. And my experience was that I had to endure the two years of overcrowding, noise and constant closures/bustitution, but none of the benefits that were supposed to have been complete when I still had two years left there to enjoy them!
True, my choice to move away before I could see the changes, but my point is that I had to endure a commute from hell every day for two years, while staring daily at signs promising major improvements from 2022 that I never saw. In 2024.
I know these things take time, but TfW are terrible for constantly promising times they then have to change, and then change again. If you're consistently not meeting deadlines, does it not seem a good idea to stop giving these deadlines?
