FCC put ticket gates on their platforms
Some of them. The new platform 1 and 2 (used by most local stopping
services heading towards Moorgate and King's Cross don't have barriers
for some reason. 5 and 6 also don't have barriers but very few trains
use them.
I presume this is because the FCC barriers were put in before 1 & 2 were
completed and that therefore they will be coming along soon.
They were put in before 1 and 2 were started. They are actually old
platforms that have been brought back into use but that has meant
installing a lift, moving the stairs, new platform buildings, new
platform surfaces, new signs, new CCTV, new PA etc. It seems odd that
gates weren't included in all that.
Is there a plan to gate the whole station which would make barriers on
the platforms unnecessary?
