Passing through the tube station I heard a PA announcement about how pax could buy tickets at the far end of their journey, and then later saw the closure flagged on the results of a journey planner query. As far as I could see from a quick glance there wasn't any obvious physical reason for them to be closed (e.g. obstruction etc), so my guess would be that the power supply (and/or comms) was cut off for some reason as a result of the works going on at the station - but I'd be interested to know the actual explanation for it. I thought it was to allow a move of all of the machines to the reconstructed ticket office downstairs. I haven't been through Victoria today so can't confirm if there is a new office in place or not. It was a planned closure not some emergency problem. -- Paul C Any idea what happened at the D&C end of the station? Also, there are three ticket machines downstairs at the bottom of the Wicked Exit. |
