Southeastern trains to Charing Cross will not call at London Bridge for a year from 2015 and services to Canon Street will also not halt there between 2016 until late 2017.
It's been coming for years. They are going to put the concourse for platforms 1-6 in the vaults/tunnels/arches underneath the tracks apparently - a bit like St Pancras.
Will probably be great when it's done - but an absolute nightmare until then.

It'll be a pain to get to Charlton, as for 2-3 years you won't be able to go to London Bridge and have a choice of trains from Charing X or Cannon St, it'll be one or the other...

Think it's trains going to Charing Cross and Canon St which are affected. But who knows!
As the man says, it's the train passengers who will be the biggest winners in this investment. Yeh right!
Flippin' Thameslink. It's already ruined Borough Market and closed down the best pub in the world (The Wheatsheaf). All to improve travel from Bedford to Brighton. Sheesh.

Ah, I didn't notice the 'to' bit, and presumed it was both ways!

The Wheatsheaf is meant to reopening this autumn
Been hearing that. i hope it's true and that is becomes a great pub again.
I guess it just means that even more people will now use the London Overground service from New Cross to Canada Water, changing to the Jubilee Line for London Bridge. Will cause bloody chaos at New Cross too.
Given that there are twice as many Charing X trains on the Bexleyheath line as there are Cannon St I am hopeful that not stopping at London Bridge will discourage many people from getting the Cannon St train and changing at London Bridge, meaning more seats on the train for those of us actually going to Cannon St.
Unfortunately, when the Charing X trains aren't stopping there it will have the opposite effect

don't see why they can't get a million workers in all at once and knock it out within a few weeks.
;o)

There's a lot of boozers in the area whose profits will suffer - from the loss of my business alone!
