Rail Station Accessibility

Some of the North’s rail stations are still partially or wholly inaccessible to people with disabilities or reduced mobility and TfN wants to improve the level of accessibility in stations and make them, comfortable, and safe for everyone who travels by rail. 

Transport for the North (TfN) is conducting research on the accessibility of rail stations in the North of England. Rail users, and those who don’t currently use trains, are invited to comment on the accessibility of different aspects of the station environment, and on different stages of using a station (starting from arriving at a rail station, to boarding a train for their onward journey).

Members of the public are being asked for their views on what they feel works well in terms of accessibility at the rail stations they use, as well as what they feel needs improving, so that TfN can work to remove the accessibility barriers and issues that passengers are experiencing. The survey can be completed more than once to allow individuals to feedback on each station they

Details of how to take part in the survey can be found at Tell us how accessible your rail station is - complete our survey to help make them better - Transport for the North - Transport for the North.

The survey, which is open until Friday 7 June 2024, will help TfN gather views on accessibility to inform their plans for accessibility improvements in rail stations.
