Lewisham station platform work to reduce train gap

This happened some months ago but I was reminded of it this week while waiting for a train (yes, it was an essential journey).

Work has been carried out by Network Rail to slightly reduce the large gaps between platforms and trains at Lewisham station.

While at the station I again wished how Platform 4’s now permanently closed exit would be re-opened. It’d make like much easier.

Last month it was revealed that £5.5 million was to be allocated to look at long-term changes to the station.

A new entrance and exit is planned as part of an adjacent 35-floor tower – but there’s no commitment to actually staffing it once complete.

As a private renter living costs are very high and ads bring in relatively little to the site. I run it alone, and you can support me through Paypal with a one-off or monthly donation here

Many thanks
