It does seem that TPTB have woken up to the idea that filling every
available bit of floor space with retail units isn't actually a good
idea - they get in the way of people who don't want to use them, and
at busy times the crowds of travellers get in the way of those who do
want to use them.


That is certainly apparent at Waterloo. A fairly large number of food
outlets have disappeared with the barrier project, and you can see the
trains again. I haven't noticed any major delays in getting a coffee etc
though, so they must have been a bit overprovisioned previously.
