Move Woolwich Arsenal from zone 4 to zone 3/4 boundary

As the opening of Crossrail gets closer and closer, and as the regeneration of Woolwich gains momentum, we think it's important to help the area further benefit from all these positive changes. The number of commuters is growing and this trend is only going to continue.
Moving Woolwich Arsenal station from 4 to the zone 3/4 boundary will help make Woolwich even more attractive and slightly less expensive for workers commuting west, without penalising those coming into Woolwich from the east. There are talks of moving Stratford, a stone's throws from Woolwich, into zone 2. Also Battersea is poised to be moved from zone 2 to zone 1. Gallions Reach, just north of the river and further east than Woolwich, is already in zone 3.
These are all the reasons why we think Woolwich Arsenal should be moved onto the zone 3/4 boundary.
