Questions!

Why and when was the site on The Great Western Road  for Crossrail chosen, given the awkwardness of its accessibility? Why was planning permission granted, unless it WAS granted on the basis of Crossrail using the canal and rail routes?

How can the government grant a 'parliamentary act' to Crossrail with, apparently, no controls over the said company? Allowing a profit-making business to, essentially ride rough-trod over the city's inhabitants and businesses? The government, through it's special 'Crossrail Act' has created a bullying monster.

Will this monster pay for the damage to the roads and to our buildings?
