Remember also, that people arriving on the main platforms at KX will
be tipped out into that open space (with very limited coverage from
the rain). This halfway house will get them used to packing an
umbrella


Eh? The new footbridge to the new western concourse will be the
primary exit route to the Tube, St Pancras, etc. The exit to the south
where the current concourse is will only be for people exiting into
the local area.


My understanding is that the bridge is only for passengers going
*to* the trains.


And a bloody inconvenient route for them too. If people were designed to
go up and down they'd have given us wings.
