Dear Editor,
Re Wembley Stadium events.
We need everyone to complain to Travelwatch, about lack of service, diversions with no signage telling people anything? or where to go and catch the bus, and why they suspend the service for so long before the event.
Why nothing on TFL website, bus information displays, Wembley Stadium website site - nothing!
Don't even get me started as to why there is no pick up area allocated for all the chauffeurs and ubers blocking the roads - more on that another time.

"Where are our local councillors and MPs?" Probably enjoying freebies at Wembley Stadium!!!
ReplyDeleteTFL comments on Wembley Stadium extra events planning application mentions the impact on buses...
ReplyDelete"8. It is noted that the applicant has stated that the effect on bus routes is considered to be negligible. This is not accepted. Could further
information be provided on how this has been determined."
