I think the best chance of it being done would have been when forster square was re developed. Today it would take a huge tunnel to be built and i bet forster square would close also as the straight section of the track where the station is would be the incline section into the tunnel
A similar project has now been completed to join the East London and disused Broad Street lines at Shoreditch. Passenger numbers have exceeded all expectations.
Not a chance of it ever happening - its a railway remember . If it was a ring road or a bypass, it would have been built 40 - 50 years ago. This country is so Anti rail.

The latest plan is to link FS with a tunnel/viaduct to a new station at the Dryden Street Market
