Written Answers
Railways: Trespass
Asked by: Lord Moylan (Conservative - Life peer)
Tuesday 21st July 2026

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill on 2 June (HL335), how many rail trespass incidents were recorded in each of the last 30 years; and what estimate they have made of the long-term revenue loss arising from those incidents in each of those years.

Answered by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill - Minister of State (Department for Transport)

Data supplied by Network Rail indicates that the volume of trespass incidents increased from 6,415 in 2014/15 to 13,921 in 2025/26 (an increase of 117 per cent).

Over the same time, when adjusted for inflation, the estimated cost of delays associated with trespass incidents rose from £46.7 million to £85.5 million (an increase of 83 per cent).

When adjusted for inflation, the average estimated cost per trespass incident has reduced over time, from approximately £7,300 in 2014/15 to around £6,100 in 2025/26.

Railway Stations: Access
Asked by: Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth (Conservative - Life peer)
Thursday 16th July 2026

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill on 6 July (HL1210), how many stations on the rail network in England are currently not accessible for all users; and how many are expected to become accessible for all users in each of the next three years.

Answered by Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill - Minister of State (Department for Transport)

The Department continues to improve accessibility through programmes such as the Access for All scheme, including the announcement in January of 31 new projects progressing.

There are just over 2,000 mainline railway stations in England. Of these, 488 stations have no step-free access. 392 stations have partial step free access - this is where step-free access is available to one or more platforms, but not all platforms, or there are restrictions that mean not all journeys through the station are step-free.

Future funding for the Access for All programme will be considered as part of the next Spending Review, which may provide an opportunity for stations to receive accessibility funding.
