	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/03/2017 answer text <p>There is not a requirement to modify all UK platforms to meet a height of 915 mm but if upgrade work is carried out this is currently the applicable height. For platforms on new railways, such as HS2, this height may be too low to facilitate level boarding and the application of alternative heights is being considered.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 07/03/2017 13:18:23 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

	uin	HL4028
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/01/2015 answer text <p>Network Rail is responsible for managing a large number of station rebuilding projects. The scope and scale of these works vary from relatively minor works to very large scale projects such as London King’s Cross or Birmingham New Street. The amount of assessment will similarly vary depending upon the scale of the project concerned. For the larger schemes it is usual for the Department for Transport to appoint a scheme sponsor. These sponsors are in regular contact with Network Rail to undertake assurance activity around delivery.</p><p> </p><p>In addition the Office of Rail Regulation undertakes regular reviews of Network Rail’s delivery against its Business Plan commitments, and this will include station rebuilding projects.</p> answering member printed Baroness Kramer question first answered 15/01/2015 12:18:04 answering member 1557 label Biography information for Baroness Kramer
