§ Lord Marlesfordasked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether they are now able to give a date for the opening of Westminster Underground Station for the Jubilee Line Extension: and if not, when they expect to be able to do so. [HL72]
§ The Minister of State, Department of the Environment, Transport and the Regions (Lord Macdonald of Tradeston)London Transport aim to open the Jubilee Line station at Westminster shortly before Christmas. It is however a deep and complex station, being constructed on a constricted site. LT cannot therefore guarantee the opening date at present. We do not yet know when it will be possible to give a firm date.
