Crossrail 2: Wide-ranging support London First published its final report into Crossrail 2 on 5 th February Lord Adonis said, “Today's report sets out a compelling plan with strong business support. Crossrail 2 is an integrated tube and rail service connecting south-west, central, and north-east London, benefiting millions of passengers and jobs.” 16 The Mayor said, “The case for the construction of Crossrail 2 is incontestable and is made forcibly in this report. Over the next 20 years London’s population is forecast to expand to levels that will clog the Tube and rail arteries of our great city if we do not provide more capacity. There is no time to lose and my team will work closely with London First and others on developing plans for this vital railway.” Network Rail also strongly supports Crossrail 2.
