Good grief - it is like living in the dark ages around here.
rshdunlop, you really really disappoint me.
Michael, this is a not a cut through in a remote part of SE23 - I suggest you take a visit to see how many people normally come through the underpass - you could help those with buggies. You would also see the steps up to platform 2.
To be clear, Tomangel is angry at being being put out, and I agree this is unreasonable, as it is only short term. But those with young children and without cars are being seriously inconvenienced maybe twice a day everyday by these steps. It's 2012 not 1950. (If only it was 1850.)
And if 350m is not such a big deal, why was it unacceptable for FH Pools to move to Willow Way? Would it be fine for the station to relocate to Clyde Vale Opp the pools? It is only 350m.
