IT recently took me more than an hour by bus from Walthamstow to Stratford due to traffic jams, so goodness knows how people will get there at the appointed time if the barmy plan to close Waltham Forest Magistrates Court goes ahead.

It also emphasises yet again the pressing need to re-establish a direct rail link between Chingford, Walthamstow and Stratford, which could be easily done by reinstating the Hall Farm Curve.
