Plans for Night Working at Epsom Station Deferred
Amidst much heckling from the public gallery, a planning application to allow night working at Epsom Station has been deferred. A meeting of the Planning Committee on 2nd September was remarkable for two reasons : firstly the "consultation" period on the proposals had not expired by the time the plans were brought to the Committee for decision and secondly a blow-by-blow commentary of the meeting was transmitted via the internet on Twitter thanks to local Guardian reporter Thais Portilho-Shrimpton.
