Indeed. There are many aspects of the turn of the century refurb that I think still work well - the train shed, transfer deck and refurbished North concourse in particular, but we're getting on for a quarter of a century so some TLC will understandably be due.
It's still a hell of alot better than what there was beforehand (the dingy subways for a start!)
Tbh the incremental improvements (opening up the Southern Concourse roof, platform 0, southern entrance etc) have done the best they can but there's alot more that needs doing. I know there's work planned although I doubt what is needed will be fully funded and Leeds will get a bargain basement version!
It’s definitely far better than the pre 2000 station and the recent upgrades have massively helped.
The taxi stand will be by the new entrance from what I understand.
Future plans include demolishing the admin block to further extend the concourse. This will mean moving Traincrew and station staff to a new location somewhere in the station (probably the Aire Street offices).
Network Rail have desired this for a long time (valuable station real estate) and it almost happened with the refurbishment of City House where not just LNER, XC, Northern and Network Rail local staff would have moved and Alex Hynes wanted to move Northern’s HQ and east side training centre into there too. Sadly Bruntwood wanted silly money to rent space and non of the companies wanted to entertain such a price hike from what they already had and stayed put.
P17 will happen and is in the planning stages.
