[kx expansion and congestion]

I found some DfT sponsored plans for the Northern Ticket Hall and associated
passageways from 2004. Heavy going, but shows all future stages of
development, the final arrangements seem to be figure 12, and confirms what
you say above about the Victoria line not having a new entrance. There has
been much previous debate about the eastern most route from the Victoria
line platforms to the KX Thameslink entrance, you would imagine they'd have
to make a decision soon, even if it only removes a very small % of the tube
ticket hall footfall it would seem to be helpful...

Interesting - thank you. The various demand scenarios post phase 2
expansion still show that the platforms themselves are the constraint -
even after the line upgrades are delivered with an improved throughput
of trains.
