Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will prioritise the installation of tactile paving at all mainline rail stations.
Platform edge tactiles are part of the scope for more than 100 accessible routes due to be installed under our Access for All programme by 2024. In addition, whenever the industry installs, replaces or renews platform infrastructure they are required to install tactiles.
I have asked Network Rail to work up a costed plan for a wider roll out of tactiles for stations where tactiles are not being delivered under another programme.
