Woodford

Woodford station's eastbound and westbound platforms exit into two parts of the town that are so far apart (in terms of walking/driving distance) that it would take about 20 minutes to walk from one platform to the other. (Hmmm, doesn't make much sense, I'll try and think of a better way to express it)

The two platforms are connected via a bridge inside the station and a subway just outside. In the evenings the exit of the westbound platform is locked, meaning that passengers have to walk over the bridge to the eastbound platform, exit and then go underneath the station and back out to the westbound exit of the station.

Both exits have an array of shops, though the westbound side has only a row of shops surrounded by a large residential area; whereas the eastbound side has an abundance of shops, a mini-cab service, car park with a much smaller amount of houses and a few flats.

Woodford station is in Zone 4.

Hope some of this is useful, I'll try and add more soon.
