Susan Elan Jones Excerpts

Tuesday 5th December 2017 Commons Chamber

[Susan Elan Jones (Clwyd South) (Lab)]

My petition concerns the urgent need for greater accessibility of Ruabon station.

The petition states:

The petition of residents of the village of Ruabon in the constituency of Clwyd South,

Declares that Ruabon railway station is currently inaccessible to a number of potential users as the only method of using platform 2 is by crossing a footbridge which is difficult for passengers with mobility issues or luggage to carry, and impossible for wheelchair users.

The petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons call on the Government to speed up plans to improve access to the Ruabon railway station either by replacing the existing bridge with one that allows easy access for all users, or to add a wheelchair accessible entrance to platform 2.

And the petitioners remain, etc.
