I see the LU development at KXSP is funded directly by the DfT [2].
I get the feeling that the DfT is now distinctly unwilling to fund
what they might regard as extraneous parts of transport projects - and
this would include a travolator.

I'm not sure with the distances involved it's that extraneous. I made
the mistake of interchanging from Monument District line to Bank Central
Line the other day. I expect it would have been quicker to walk over the
surface, probably from Mansion House or Cannon Street.

The Central Line platforms are right under the intersection (hence the
curve as the line swings from under Poultry to Threadneedle Street).
Cannon Street might have saved you time; Mansion House wouldn't unless
you're coming from the west - it's further than Monument.

The four stations make an inverted T with about 200m between them, so
about 300m for the two diagonal moves.

I know all this which is why I put it as I did. I *was* coming from the
West.
