The old station had many flights of stairs up to the walkway
that ran the entire width of the station. Now there are far more
conflicting pedestrian routes, making it very difficult to get around
the concourse when it's busy.


My memory is of two separate concourses, divided by a single extra-
long platform which meant it was a long walk from one to the other
without using the footbridge.


Agreed, but surely the platform levels were significantly below
street level, so how was there the stepless access that Colin
alleges?


The taxi road down to platform level. It was hardly steep.
