is a taxi (and goods vehicle) only route


And pushbike! How about buses? Until recently, they were going that way
too, but now i think about it, i don't recall seeing any yesterday or this
morning on my way to work.

for the Kings Cross rank which is now on the west of that station (the
internal rank alongside KX platform 1 has been closed for a while. I
took a walk up there last Saturday, and its remarkable how many car
drivers didn't understand the signage, and found themselves in a queue of
taxis , with a double white line on their offside!


Well, car drivers are a dozy lot, so who can blame them.


Its that difficult to understand sign that usually gets referred to as
'Danger - low flying motorbikes' - most car drivers are pretty well aware of
the normal 'No Entry' sign...
