This was prompted by discussion in another thread about the close proximity of Wigan North Western and Wigan Wallgate. Looking at Google Street view it would appear that a bridge footway of something like 300m could be installed to link the stations within the barrier lines. Havng to walk out of a station into an unfamiliar street, particularly at night, is a major disincentive to changing trains, so this (yes expensive) bridge would fix that.
Another place where a bridge to join the platforms would be very handy is at West Hampstead to join the three stations.
I'm excluing links like the Birmingham International to Birmingham HS2 transit system as that's too far and is effectively a third line.
Where else would benefit from this sort of link up to improve access to services for passengers?
