Commuters in constant 'crush' at London Underground station
Commuters say the issue has become "unbearable"
Good afternoon everyone,
Commuters have vented their anger at "constant" closure of escalators in Walthamstow Central station. Photos have emerged of crowds struggling to reach the London Underground platform as many fear it could eventually result in a crush.
Residents have called the issue "unbearable", while others are calling for it to be used as an extra stairway to reduce pressure on the sole way in currently being used. You can read more in our newsletter below.
Also in today’s edition, we have a look back at a forgotten enormous Walthamstow power station which dominated the skyline before it was demolished.
Thanks for your support and we’ll be back next week,
Team E17
