CHANGE PLATFORMS |
Describe Online |
The four platforms in this station are assigned as follows:
Note that southbound services from either platform can serve either the Charing Cross or City branchvia King's Cross. You should either observe notices on the platform/train or listen for announcements. At the time of our survey, we relied on on-train announcements, which may not be easy when the station is crowded.
The doors will open on your right as you face the front of the train. There is tactile paving along the edge of all platforms in this station.
Although you can change platforms via the entrance/exit passages, we suggest it's easier to use the passages towards the south end of the platform, particularly when the station is crowded.
Note that there's a metal rail along the middle of the platform, opposite the entrance/exit, but none at the south passages.
