Railways: Access
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps her Department is taking to increase the rate of implementation of step free access on the rail network.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
Since 2006, the Access for All (AfA) programme has delivered step free access at more than 250 stations across Great Britain. We are carefully considering the best approach to the Access for All programme. This Government is committed to improving the accessibility of the railway and recognises the social and economic benefits this brings to communities.
