Default Latest changes at Monument/Bank

For weeks I've been changing between Bank (Northern Line) and Monument
despite dire warnings in LU publicity that this was not possible. Many
here will be aware that these warnings have been related more to crowd
management than actual escalator closures.

So I thought I'd pass on the news that since last weekend there is
absolutely no access from Monument down to the Northern Line (or any
other part of Bank station) following the closure of the down
escalator for repairs.

You can still go in the other direction without difficulty, from the
Northern Line up to Monument. However for some reason only the
passageway to the eastbound Circle line platform is open. To get from
the Northern Line to the westbound Circle line platform you need to go
up to the eastbound Circle line platform, then up to to ticket hall
level and finally down again to the westbound platform.

Hope that makes sense and is of use to somebody...
