Am I missing something here?
Going through the station does not help anyone with a pushchair, is old or disabled, as there still is a significant flight of stairs to negotiate.
They have to go the long way round as they always did. Which is disgraceful.
It may only take Usain Bolt 30 secs to negotiate those 350m, but it is a fair old distance to be put out of your way, whether you are fully mobile or not - the same sort of distance as from say the launderette to the start of Honor Oak Rd. Surprising but true.
But hey, with funding from the flats this is a golden opportunity to finally put this right, and I look forward to congratulate our MP, Lewisham council, Network Rail and FH Society in a few weeks time.
