We would also expect operators to consider other equality related needs and make this clear in their consultation.</p><p> </p><p>Together with the industry, we want to improve and modernise the passenger experience by moving staff out from ticket offices to provide more help and advice in customer focused roles. No currently staffed station will be unstaffed as a result of industry changes, and train operators will ensure staff are well located to meet passenger needs in future.</p><p> </p><p>Station staff will still provide face-to-face services on the railways, which assists those who need additional support, and cannot or do not want to use contactless or mobile tickets. All staff in customer facing roles or with management responsibilities are already required to undertake enhanced disability awareness training.</p><p> </p><p>The Department recently hosted roundtable discussions with industry and accessibility and transport groups to discuss this matter and ensure their views are understood.
