they might be taken out or replaced in due course.

The effect of all this is that arrivals from MML will be able to walk all
the way along the main level to the front of the trainshed presumably
exiting through the St Pancras forecourt; or descending to undercroft level
at any of three or four different places and heading for the Met/Circle
station, or leaving directly at the various pedestrian or taxi pickup exits
at the sides of the building...

As far as I am aware there is no intention to allow access/exit at the
plate form level in to the forecourt at St Pancras which is on the
Euston Road, there will as now installed be exit entrance at the Euston
Road level into the LUL Ticket Hall. The £80 fine for Dropping and
collecting passengers in unauthorised places will in due course be
extended to whole complex to dissuade traffic problems.


Access from Pancras Road via the old steps seems to be envisaged - the
steps are still there, complete with art nouveau 'St Pancras Station'
sign. (Though I suspect the subtle difference between this and the
adjacent LU 'Kings Cross St Pancras Station' sign, without roundel,
will confuse many visitors.)
