I can picture the escalators down to the Victoria Line. Are the
steps down fewer than would be required from bridge level to
[northbound NXEA] platform level?

Yes. There are steps down from the victoria Line ticket office level to
the Down Lea Valley platform.

Ah, so that doesn't make it step-free if you are emerging from the tube
and heading for Stansted?

So we need a different step-free route (says a member of the extreme
step-free club).

How about District and Circle via Liverpool St to Kings Cross, then
across the island platform to return to Liverpool St the same side as
the mainline trains?

you could always come off the vic line escalators, out into the bus
station area, down the slope and hope the door at the end is unlocked
to the platform and gain step-free access that way... :-D


That is the proper step free route to the northbound platform, and the
doorway in question is always open.

I meanwhile am not a member of the extreme step-free club - a few
stairs is not a problem in my books, luggage is there to be lugged!
