Correct - this is confirmed on the TfL web page about the Bakerloo ticket hall.
The Paddington Square development incorporates the Carriage Road area into "The Piazza". It also incorporates the former London Road between Praed Street and Winsland Street - that road has been extinguished and...
There will be two entrances to the new Bakerloo ticket hall.
One is off the old Carriage Road, not too far from the old platform 11/12 entrance, though I believe you leave the station under the arch.
The second is on the corner of Praed Street and Tanner Lane.
I have attached an image from...
Some will suggest buying a paper Travelcard in these circumstances so that you do not fall foul of maximum journey times on Oyster/contactless. I suspect a paper Travelcard is not valid to/from Heathrow on the Elizabeth line, though I suspect you have limited interest in travelling on the...
Not everyone who was with Geoff got on at Abbey Wood. After arriving with Geoff on SouthEastern and being directed to the queue outside, JenOnTheMove bailed out and got a PHV to Woolwich, joining the first train from Abbey Wood at Woolwich.
Other than the Platinum Jubilee weekend, there is no Sunday service at the moment for ongoing testing and integration work, ready for through running to start in autumn 2022.
Terrestrial DGPS is old school now. The UK and Ireland marine DGPS is being shut down by the General Lighthouse Authorities on 31 March 2022 - the equipment is life-expired and the accuracy available from GPS alone (without the benefit of the GLONASS, BeiDou and Galileo satellites used by the...
Financial markets law is a specialist area in which I have no training, though I know that you're referring to the offence under section 89 of the Financial Services Act 2012. There is no real doubt now that the statements made were false and there was at least recklessness at the time they were...
The legal basis of travel on the railway is contractual. As well as the contract, there are also various statutory rights and responsibilities for users of the railway.
There is no 'effectively entering into a contract' - when you ask to purchase a ticket and the ticketing provider sells you...
I have no real expertise on employment law, but I would expect many of the 'agree to leave without notice but with all your bonuses' deals are akin to an out of court settlement - rather than the situation being handled like a dismissal, with the attendant risk of a claim being made to the...
Not any more. The deception offences that used to be found in the Theft Act 1968 and Theft Act 1978 were repealed by schedule 1 paragraph 1 of the Fraud Act 2006. They were replaced by the new suite of fraud offences created by the 2006 Act, which I discussed in post #1479.
There is no such thing as criminal negligence in English law other than manslaughter by gross negligence. Other than that exception, negligence is a tort - a civil wrong - not a crime.
There are three offences of fraud, which are found in sections 2 to 4 of the Fraud Act 2006. Of these, the...
Section 1 of the Theft Act 1978 was repealed by schedule 1 paragraph 1 of the Fraud Act 2006. The replacement offence is obtaining services dishonestly, contrary to s. 11 Fraud Act 2006. Another possible charge is fraud by false representation, contrary to s. 2 Fraud Act 2006 - this is often an...
What I wrote in my earlier reply is potentially misleading. I cannot find this offence either in schedule 1 of The National Police Records (Recordable Offences) Regulations 2000 (SI 2000/1139) (which is not updated on the linked source - there are no non-subscription sources of updated Statutory...
Only protected convictions are filtered out. Whilst you were not convicted of a listed offence (mostly serious offences involving sexual misconduct, violence or terrorism - there is a comprehensive list online), you did not receive a custodial sentence and this is your only conviction, the...
As someone who studied law at university and who is a wheelchair user, I guess I have a particular reason to engage with this topic.
As @lincman says, the current situation is curious and has seemingly been brought about by campaigner pressure (my apologies to Doug Paulley - @kingqueen on these...
This is likely down to the 50km limit for operation on domestic drivers' hours without a tachograph. Most buses are not used above 50km and are not tachograph fitted. Drivers working a mixture of EU hours and domestic hours work introduces all sorts of complexity, not least a likelihood of fewer...
Unless it has changed dramatically since I was at university, the general position is that voluntary intoxication is no defence, not least because of the public policy interest in not giving defendants a trivial escape from the charge(s) they face.
In a relatively narrow range of situations...
