And then there is the reworking of King's Cross mainline to come,
especially sweeping away the "temporary" concourse.

Are they going to achieve the miracle of Liverpool Street of
converting a station with all-over step free access to one full of
stairs and escalators too? Anyone seen any consultations on plans?

From what I've gleaned elsewhere, acess from the new northern
ticket hall will be via a footbridge across the middle of the
platforms, but the south end access will also be retained.

There's a summary sheet here Colin:

No mention of cycles. I've sent them feedback via their web form (no
address on the leaflet). Searching the web site doesn't even find that
leaflet!

You can find LOTs of useful information on the Camden Council website at:

Some Councils seem to get lots of useful info on their websites, unlike
some I could name. Perhaps their Councillors spend too much time away
from their elected domain (;-)
