The rebuilding of London Bridge station and its environs is now well underway. This redevelopment is to improve through-train capacity and flow in connection with the Thameslink Programme. The route between Blackfriars and London Bridge has long been a bottleneck - a victim of the huge sucess of Thameslink. The Network Rail poster to the left explains the timescale. Coverage of the Thameslink developments at other Central London stations can be found by following these links: |

In the webmaster's opinion the forecourt bus garage was a gloomy place even on the brightest days and although protection from the weather has gone the ambiance is much improved now the canopy has been removed. |

The concourse beyond the barrier line of the terminal platforms was also confined and gloomy. Just at the moment there is daylight! |
