The Cross-rail project has been delayed multiple times due to funding issues, design problems, and construction delays. These delays have caused increased costs and inconvenience to commuters who were expecting the railway service to be operational.
In August 2020, Crossrail announced that the central section would be ready to open "in the first half of 2022". In May 2021, trial running commenced, with the core section opened by Queen Elizabeth II for passenger service on 24 May 2022.
Crossrail is Europe's biggest engineering project, a new train line linking east and west London that was meant to open in December in 2018, but it is years behind schedule, billions over budget and dogged by all kinds of problems. This documentary tracks the troubled project from the very beginning, featuring interviews with former workers, politicians and transport experts, as well as people who were promised that Crossrail would bring huge benefits.
