Well ..I know the dust hasn't settled and there will be inquiries etc, but I was wondering if the Bucks Ad is going to be comment on this or report it strictly as a news story?


I should think 100% of your readers would like you to enter the debate

As professional journalists we have no opinion and
do not add our own comments to stories. All the
extensive
coverage which will appear next week will be treated
in an objective way.
However, Peter, as editor, may make a comment, but
has not made a decision at this time.

i have just hit the bucks free press web site to see their coverage on this incident, but i would be interested in the  press statement from tesco on this, plus how could a project of this scale ( 20 million) go so wrong, - having been involved in big construction projects ( upto 106 million ) these groundwork issues should have been well and truly resloved before the first spade arrived on site !!!!!

there are reports of the project being overrun and contractors trying to make up lost time, - were corners cut ? were things rushed ?  , but more importantly only a small number of tunnel sections collapsed, there are hundereds of others still buried under tonnes of ash and earth,, these are still over a main rail line..... and do they- tesco and jackson expect commuters to be willing to pass under these sections once the line is re-opened ?

 

if they have to be removed or re-inspected what will the total cost be and how long will the delays go on for ?

 

its gonna be a packed paper !

what is the long term options now for this project ?

i think it will be scrapped? plus who would work in the store when the tunnel has caved in and the shop has not been built yet, i think the ground is the best bet, in other words tesco's have scre--- up

Sarah ..the replacement buses are NOT stopping at GX because the station is closed. Could you ask Chiltern why they couldn't at least run them to the Packhorse? How are people expected to GET there? TARDIS?

I have just spoken to a nice lady at Chiltern in Aylesbury. She tells me that buses ARE stopping at GX station from today. The bus timetable is incorrect but they can't amend it from there
