Narrative:

Location: worpp intersection. We were cleared to cross worpp at 16000 ft and 250 KTS. After we had reached 16000 ft, still prior to worpp, we were cleared to a lower altitude below 16000 ft. We crossed worpp intersection at 15500 ft and approximately 300 KTS. No conflicts were noted, and nothing was heard from ATC. 250 KTS was achieved approximately 4 mi beyond worpp.
