Disabled 'to sue for Tube access'

"John Rowland" wrote in message ... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/3595351.stm London Underground (LU) has been warned that it could be sued by disabled people if it does not improve access for them by October. By then the part of the Disability Discrimination Act which governs access to transport will come into force. Currently only one in seven stations are step-free, which allows entry for wheelchair users. [snip] And at quite what height should the platforms be at Ealing Common and Rayner's Lane to Uxbridge to be step free? Hasn't there been some consideration to hiving off the Rayner's Lane Piccadilly branch to the District line - or running it as a Acton Town - Rayner's Lane / Uxbridge shuttle? -- Dave Arquati Imperial College, SW7 www.alwaystouchout.com - Transport projects in London |
