hallo all

i have to get to Liverpool Street Station via public transport for 9.30 am tomorrow morning. What do people think would be least disrupted - a 40 bus to Aldgate and walk over, or the train to L'Bridge and then tube? I'd really appreciate your advice! (travelling with kids - dreading it)


cheers


Ollie

You can also get a 35 from Camberwell Green straight to Liverpool Street.


But I don't know what the traffic might be like.


Or you can get the train to London Bridge (or a 40), then there are loads of buses which go from London Bridge to Liverpool Street. The bus stop is just at the beginning of the bridge, on the other side from the station, and is the same stop that the 40 stops at.


ETA: I wouldn't be too keen to take small children on the tube in the rush hour, albeit it maybe it wouldn't be too bad during the Summer with people on holiday. But then there's the olympics .....

Have you signed up to travel alerts from tfl? I just had a very comprehensive email from them regarding tomorrow's Olympic events and which transport links will be affected/busiest. They'll be sending them out each day throughout the Games. I can forward you the email if you PM me.

The number 42 also goes to Liverpool Street from Camberwell from the same stop as the 35.

If you have small kids I would avoid London Bridge then tube as they are making you walk a long long way around temporary fencing to get from the trains to the tube. I work near Liverpool Street station and find the best way is Forest Hill to Shoreditch High Street then bus or walk, or train to London Bridge and BUS to Liverpool Street station - 149 or 48. Much better than the tube.

    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
