London Bridge station reopens platforms in £1bn project

BBC NEWS   02 January 2018   UK   London  

One of Britain's busiest railways stations has almost doubled its passenger capacity with the reopening of five platforms.

London Bridge will now serve 96 million people a year, up from about 50 million.

The works form part of a £1bn redevelopment of the capital's oldest station, which opened in 1836.

Network Rail said the project, which was started in 2013, was a "shining example" of investment.

Unions have said "greedy" private companies will make money out of the station, which it says has suffered "life-threatening chaos" due to overcrowding at rush hour.
