Yes, announced on the FCC website:

It certainly wasn't ready to open when I visited on Saturday:

I was there on Monday. I'm not sure why the footbridge, complete with a
MIP lift on each side, is there at all.

Does it just connect the station or is it for general pedestrian use?
Currently, the frequent closing of the crossing in such a built up area
causes much inconvenience (it doesn't help the road traffic much of
course!). Lifts do seem a bit over the top, but hey, it's only money!
