Default Shepherds Bush

If I may, I'd like to recommend Mr Thants update to the Shepherds Bush
platform saga. Good cross sectional drawing of the infamous wall behind the
northbound platform, explains the difficulty of moving it, and showing the
lights bracketed off the wall, as previously suggested. (As an aside - has
it been designed that way to try and prevent wayward buses falling onto the
platform?)

The southbound photo shows the access from the footbridge in the direction
of the tracks via the narrowest part of the platform, rather than 'along'
the line of the platform. Note also the (loudspeaker?) pole stood right on
the corner, again narrowing the access - why isnt it hung off the footbridge
structure?

As far as I'm concerned the same sort of 'beginners mistake' as that DLR
footbridge at Stratford, that should also access the platform away from the
tracks...
