I really don't understand your insistence that disabled people need
to use the tube at peak hours in the busiest stations or it doesn't


Because if they're using the tube as a daily method of transport and
not as once-a-month day out (in which case why waste money on disabled
access, just pay for a dial-a-ride taxi) then they'll more than likely
be travelling in the rush hour unless they've managed to get special
dispensation from their boss to work different hours to everyone
else.


Not "everyone" works hours that require traveling in the peaks. Someone
who has difficulty traveling in the peaks would be more likely to seek a
job that did not require it.
