I commute to this station every day, at rush hour. There is an 'avatar' (a projection of a person) repeatedly asking people to stand on both sides. Recently she has started becoming more sarcastic, I think they are A/B testing her instructions as there are quite often people counting at the top of the flight.
It is very, very difficult standing on the left, it goes against every fibre of my being to do so, but I've managed it at least once now.
- 13of40 10y agoI, for one, am going to ask you to step aside if I need to get up the escalator, and damn the glass avatar. Your instincts are correct.
- fredley 10y agoThere are 3 escalators going up, and the left-most 'lane' (left-hand side of the leftmost escalator) is kept as a walking lane.
- gpvos 10y agoThere's still the leftmost escalator for you. (I read about this before, and thought: why don't they still allow walking on the leftmost escalator? Seems they indeed do, according to TFA.)
- chippy 10y agoIt's easier to stand on the left if there's someone in front of you blocking your path. In other words I will will stand on the left if there is other people there too. I will walk up the left until I'm blocked though. (Usually, to tell the truth I am travelling in non peak times with a wheely bag so have to stand anyhow)
