They've now blocked off the direct link between platforms 15/16 of the
Hammersmith & City / Circle Lines and platforms 13/14 used by the FGW
locals. Indeed they've now demolished the stairs from the old
footbridge down to 15/16.

Now it is not possible to get to the main station concourse from 15/16
except via an unmarked unsignposted convoluted route

Since the previous access was totally inadequate and could not easily
have its capacity increased, what would your solution have been?

in CJB world Paddington would have 16 tracks all the way from Reading
to London thus allowing mass suicides at Hayes and Harlington but also
allowing trains to keep running.

Surely anti-suicide nets over the whole GWR line (for as far as CJB
travels)?
