Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Harringay station foot bridge is falling down (possibly)
First we had the fence along one side of the bridge now, in the last day or two, we have a notice stating that the bridge is weak with a maximum load of 40 people - see photos below.
40 people isn't such a lot and this number could be reached during the rush hour when one of the trains heading north discards its Harringay passengers. If it is so unsafe shouldn't there be someone from Network Rail on the bridge at all times to make sure that the max load isn't exceeded.
Note also the cyclist cycling on a no-cycling bridge (stir, stir).

Those stations are toast because of the competition from the Piccadilly Line. It's impossible (practically anyway, to make the platforms longer and they're going to have longer trains as part of the Thameslink through St Pancras. Pay attention as you go into King's Cross and you can see they're ready off to the right to put them through the Thameslink.
If someone could see themselves through to arranging 80 people to jump up and down on it....

I'm sure I've encountered gangs of more than 40 Network Rail thugs & Transport Police in that hatched area, all beating me up before I had time to dig out my so-called Freedom Pass. "But not on us," the Oysters cried, turning a little blue/r"
