1) Its only single track in parts, could the tunnel be dual track to allow for future up gade or use by Overground services if in the future another route / Thameslink upgrade is used.
2) The direct route at Northolt / South Ruislip for a Heathrow spur will need a new waste transfer station built in South Harefield Ickenham first in order to ensure that there are no 'winter of discontent' scenes in west and North west london, is that allowed under section 106 planning in terms of future planning payments?
3) There is no provision as of yet for section 106 planning payments for a partial divert of the Central Line to Uxbridge and onto Heathrow at Ruislip Gardens using a remodelled Rusilip Gradens Depot track configuration and trains in tunnel after Ickenham to platforms under a park and ride orbital car park at hIllingdon station and then ontop Hayes End and Stockley Park, WEst Drayton and Heathrow.
4) Other rail links that could also help with this are St Albans tram train, Croxley Rail Link and a service from Chingford to Stratord regional station after the Olympics. All of which would deliver rail services from commuter suburbs to okaces of employment as they are opened rather than later on, which stabilises the economy and allows for sustainable economic growth.
