The LC tend to be closed for a long time before a train arrives, especially if it's an HST as it will foul the crossing due to the short platforms. If you're catching a train the 'wrong' side from which you are approaching, you need to leave plenty of time just in case as there is no other way across the line.

Used to be a footbridge here many years ago, but the cost of putting one back will probably be too high given that it will have to disability compliant and might need caging to stop the local yobs from throwing things from it at passing trains.
