What on earth does this mean in plain English? I can just about guess
the other ones, but this has me really puzzled.

Do not 'mind the gap' anymore, perhaps?

I don't think the platforms on the W&C are curved and gappy anyway. I
suspect they mean level access ... but since IIRC the Bank platforms can not
be reached from the street by a wheelchair anyway, that seems fairly
pointless. Then again, it's batter to get this stuff done when the line is
shut than to have to shut the line again when a lift is put in. I guess that
the NSE stripes on the platforms will be disappearing.

So it's an up-and-down gap then :-)

Thanks.

Apparently the trains are to be craned out during the closure for
modification.

That's the only way they will get out of the drain.

Considering all the years the Drain has been running why has a ramp not
been built to get trains out to B.R. or since conversion, as it's 92
stock connect it to the nearest tube at Bank or the nearest underground
line at waterloo.

They used to have a lift but it disappeared under the Eurostar station.
Perhaps they could put it back in 2007.
