When I think about the delays to Crossrail, I feel compelled to defend laziness, copy and pasting, and focus on cost-cutting. It was originally scheduled to open in 2018[1] and is now not going to be finished until well into 2021. Why? A large part of that is the work they need to do in order to "manage to reuse the facade and fuse new and old into something that blends and flows together"[2] [1] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-50345344 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-50345344 [2] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Qi046Xn6lA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Qi046Xn6lA
