| Piccadilly line stopping at Turnham Green won't do anything to address overcrowding at Gunnersbury. The only long term solution to Gunnersbury is a major station rebuild to re-instate a platform by replacing one of the existing car parks and have two separate stairways. There were rumours a while back that the owners of Chiswick Tower were looking to redevelop the car parks into flats and would be looking for favourable treatment for this development from the council if they released some of the car park space for the station, but I don't know if there has been any progress with this idea. All day Piccadilly line stopping at Turnham Green has been discussed on this forum many times before. It won't happen until the District line signalling is upgraded and existing Piccadilly line trains are replaced, so maybe 2025. |
