The fitting-out of Crossrail's station box at Woolwich needs to be clarified by Mayor Boris Johnson, say London Assembly members.

The body's transport committee, chaired by Caroline Pidgeon, is asking for the Mayor's intervention to ensure the station can be used when the high-speed rail service is launched in 2018.

At a recent meeting, members were told that although the station box had been put in place, a resolution still needed to be reached by sponsors Transport for London, the Department for Transport, Greenwich Council and Berkeley Homes to fund its fit-out.

It will need to be put in place in the next few months to meet the deadline.
