Default Oyster Pre-Pay and Stratford Station

(TheOneKEA) wrote the following in:

I was at Stratford Station today and noticed something very
distressing: the lack of a second gateline between the Central
Line/NR platforms and the Jubilee Line platforms means that
Pre-Pay users who don't see the validators on the Central Line
platforms (there aren't very many and they're not easy to find)
will mis-validate when they try to pass the gateline to get to the
Jubilee Line. Even stranger is that there appears to be no obvious
way to reach the Jubilee Line platforms from the street without
passing the entrance gateline and the Jubilee Line and
mis-validating again.

Is this a known issue or has no one simply noticed?


I've noticed this before. See this post:

The URL is split over two lines (and rather annoyingly my newsreader
doesn't seem to offer any way to fix that) so you'll have to edit it
before it works.
