A largely good NAO report at the end of last week for the construction side of the London Olympics.

One caveat I'd like to point to.. "The delivery of the Games also depends on non-Olympic projects, in particular some £5,000 million of transport enhancements around London and across the UK being delivered by the Department for Transport and its delivery partners......... Projects include upgrading the main rail links to the Olympic venues such as the West Coast mainline and the Channel Tunnel Rail Link, and the widening of parts of the M25. The Department of Transport is forecasting all the projects to be completed in time for the Games. Transport for London is accountable for further projects not being delivered specifically for the Games, but essential to their success".
