pushing the completing date back already

After the Christmas break the ticket barriers at Chelmsford train station were out of use (effectively they were left open so you can just walk straight through).

On the following Monday the ticket barriers had completely disappeared and a sign was up saying that between 6th January and 7th February the ticket barriers would be refurbished with "state of the art ones" and that the work to fit them would take place overnight.

This morning I got to the station and there was a new sign up saying that the work on the ticket barriers has been pushed back to March. LOL it doesnt say whether it is the beginning or end of the month though ;o)

It doesn't say because they don't know! Best just to give a vague date so that they don't look like they're going to be late again, like when you see roadworks with completion dates of "Summer 2011".

At least not having the barriers there makes your journey a little easier!

I have to admit it is nicer not having to faff about looking for my ticket...
