Crossrail progress on testing and systems installation

摘要

Crossrail says the central section remains on track to be delivered in a revised period between October 2020 and March 2021, after close-headway, multi-train testing started in June this year as part of its dynamic testing phase. The update, released on August 19, is the first of a new series announced by its revamped leadership team in April, and forms part of measures to increase transparency in the final stage of the project. The company says that testing and commissioning activity is taking place at all central section stations bar Bond Street, where fit-out and systems installation continues. Fit-out of the tunnels - another previous area of concern - is said to be almost complete, with handover of the completed shafts and portals due to take place "shortly".
