"Ben Plowden, TfL's director of better routes and places, said the changes were designed to cope with a huge increase in pedestrians using the pavements around Blackfriars station, as a result of extra trains and the closure of pedestrian subways." As a student of (the often threatened) highwalks, their subterranean counterparts seem to be equally (and admittedly for good reason) out of fashion, but that does lead to the surface being even more contested.]]></description>
