Default

Many stations are well over 100 years old and the cost to upgrade them would be prohibitive. Likewise, how can you make somewhere fully accessible to every single person with every single access need just in case one of them ever wanted to use it? I have a friend with cerebral palsy who is an Access Officer. She accepts that sometimes, the cost or the logistics involved prohibit making everywhere fully accessible. In any case, I think London Underground and British Rail staff do their level best to be useful when someone's in need of help with access.
