Plan Improving accessibility and pedestrian movement with tapered deck. A key consideration in the design of the generic footbridge was the orientation of the main components of the stair, lift, and deck. The stair and lift are set back from the deck to allow landing spaces, and the connection between the landings and deck is tapered to allow for a more generous space at these key points. The tapered deck provides more space at the conflict points, at the points where pedestrians change direction or speed, improving the flow of pedestrians at peak times. The lift shaft is immediately apparent when traversing the deck, as it is not hidden behind a corner, and the fully glazed walls as well as lighting and signage indicate its location. Lifts, stairs and landings are compliant with all relevant accessibility standards. Network Rail - Station Footbridge Design 2019 9
Section Glazing Fully glazed for maximum visibility The standard bridge design is fully enclosed, with full height glazing to the stairs and deck. This makes the structure appear much lighter, and reduces the impact of what can be a large structure within existing station contexts. Glazing provides good views out to the station and along the tracks, and provides protection for inclement weather. Ventilation above the ceiling helps keep the bridge cool in hot weather. ILLUMINATED LIFT SHAFT Fixed glazing on the stairs and the tapers is supported by head and base tracks, with only a silicon joint at the vertical junctions of the panels. GLASS CANOPY OVER LIFT DOOR AT PLATFORM LEVEL 18 PERSON THROUGH LIFT Removal of platform columns The structure of the bridge has been designed so that lift shaft and the stair structure form an arch, off which the deck structure can be supported. This frees up platform space under the bridge where columns would ordinarily be found. The lift motor room is concealed under the stair structure. Network Rail - Station Footbridge Design 2019 11

Site constructability Integrated services The visual importance of the lift tower is reflected in its structural importance. It is required to be in place to support the staircase stringers, and these in turn are required to support the main span. This dictates Services concealed with the sequence, with the final elements of the assembled trusses being structural elements lowered onto supports, all elements having been fabricated to standard steelwork tolerances. The location of service runs has been designed in parallel with the structural design to provide concealed service routes. Three hollow steel members on the underside of the deck provide space for cable runs across the bridge. Rainwater pipes are concealed within the lift shaft, and underneath the diagonal steel member at the stair entrance. Refer to drawings for further details of service integration.

The configuration • Alternative directions of these can be adjusted so that the bridge can be extended across further platforms, or to have direct access from a station building at high level. • Open bridge The adaptability of the bridge means that an assessment of particular station needs may result in different configurations of components.

Multiple platforms Network Rail - Station Footbridge Design 2019 33
Directional variation Alternative directions The direction of the stair and lift can be reversed if required, and stairs on one platform do not have to match the direction of the other. This may be desirable in certain station environments where there are station entrances in different locations on each platform. An assessment of the entrances and exits, and the predominant direction of travel at the station will determine the best configuration of direction for the bridge.
