It seems that services from Woolwich will be terminating at Shadwell

This is due to "unplanned escalator works".

I am mystified as to how the escalator situation will be eased if the
same number of people arrive in larger groups on fewer trains.

What am I missing as usual?

A number of passengers who were decanted at Shadwell deciding to head
to Tower Gateway instead of Bank? (Perhaps helped by the next
westbound train being to Tower Gateway?)
