answer text <p>We are committed to improving accessibility at railway stations. However, many stations date from a time when the needs of disabled passengers were simply not considered.</p><p> </p><p>Therefore whenever infrastructure work is carried out at a station by the industry, it must comply with the relevant EU and UK accessibility standards. This includes major projects such as Crossrail, but also Network Rail’s ongoing renewals programme. However, in recognition of the scale of the problem, and to increase the pace of delivery, the Access for All programme was launched to provide access improvements over and above those required to be delivered by the rail industry, targeting stations not due to have their access improved as part of other projects.</p><p> </p><p>We plan to announce the next tranche of Access for All projects in April and the Stations will all be completed by 2024 at the latest.</p> more like this
