"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? Maybe they should make the platform a slope so it is stepfree to Districts/Mets at one end and Piccadillys at the other! Peter Smyth I can hear the exploding arteries from the HSE's direction...
