North Sheen station is just off Manor Road, where there is alevel crossing. Originally, the railway was planned to run through a narrow cutting, allowing Green Lane (as Manor Road was then called) to be carried over the railway by a road bridge.[4]
The station had a footbridge allowing access to the island platforms from both sides of the level crossing, but now only the northern half of that bridge remains. A new bridge, on the opposite side of the level crossing to the station, was opened in October 2013 after members of the public had been invited to submit designs.[5] When the level crossing is closed, passengers wishing to gain access to the platforms from the south side of Manor Road have to use both bridges.
