The new Blackfriars Station spanning the River Thames in London will be completing and opened in stages over the next 6 months. The station spans the River Thames and passengers can access the station from both the north and south banks. Already a new station entrance on the Southbank has opened giving train travellers easy access to the Tate Modern.
