Passengers exiting through this platform now have to go through a
side-gate rather than exiting through the ticket hall.

The end result is that Walthamstow station is much less safe-feeling
than it was before, and it can often be impossible to buy a ticket from
mid-evening onwards.

I think pressure should be brought to bear upon WAGN, who appear not to
give a toss about customer safety:

Shutting ticket offices and opening side gates in the evening is hardly an
unusual operation, nor one carried out exclusively by WAGN.

Perhaps pressure should be brought on the police to arrest the ticket touts.
