Has anyone seen any evidence of work to install additional chargers at NX?
Delivery of the buses for 321 has started and the move of the 108 with the SEe stored vehicles would suggest it should be happening.

It was confirmed on Facebook a few weeks ago that works had begun to lay charging equipment at NX. Specifically worded as “all dug up” |

I count about 24 there, wonder where on earth GAL are going to find the place to store these I would hope they start to get them into service ASAP. I think DS should be ready for the 473 batch at least. I would have assumed the SL4 would have been the lower priority but seems not as there are several already delivered. |

Why would the SL4 be a lower priority when it's an extremely politically sensitive route? It's vital to have that route ready from the get go. |

They will also want to prepare the graphics for installation on the whole batch. |

The Silvertown tunnel has a target date for opening but we know from other projects of this size that these things slip. Maybe it’s the way I think but just would have assumed logically the priority would have been the over due routes. This would could the. release buses for other routes being taken over in January. |

With the current work going on in and around the Silvertwon tunnels it will open next Spring. |
