    The £16bn Crossrail scheme to build a new railway line through the centre of London has been given the go-ahead by Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

    Construction for the link - connecting Maidenhead, Berkshire, to Essex through London - will start in 2010.

    Train services are expected to be running in a decade.
