Future
The Greater Anglia service north to Tottenham Hale may see a re-opened station at Lea Bridge. This is not likely to take place until after the 2012 Olympics due to franchise changeovers.
The station will also become a major interchange for Crossrail services, due to commence in 2018. This would mean that Stratford would be directly linked to Heathrow Airport, Maidenhead and possibly Reading.

Without the intimation of concrete individual futures, it is hardly worth bothering with social change and improvement.”
