West Hampstead Thameslink Railway Station - Current Developments

Current Developments

As part of the Thameslink Programme the platforms have been extended to allow trains of twelve carriages and also a new larger enclosed station footbridge with lifts to all platforms accessible from Iverson Road to the south. A new ticket office has been constructed, which opened in December 2011, and the pavement along Iverson Road and onto West End Lane has been widened with the removal of pedestrian pinch-points. The original Black Path access point that connects to the original footbridge, reopened on Monday 30 January 2012 with a new ticket gate enclosure to make the station more secure.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or developments:

    “You are the current of the frozen stream,
    Shadow invisible, ambushed and vigilant flame.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “The developments in the North were those loosely embraced in the term modernization and included urbanization, industrialization, and mechanization. While those changes went forward apace, the antebellum South changed comparatively little, clinging to its rural, agricultural, labor-intensive economy and its traditional folk culture.”
    —C. Vann Woodward (b. 1908)
