Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether his Department is taking steps to ensure step-free access at Brinnington Station.

I recently launched the next round of nominations for the Access for All programme and welcome nominations for any station in Great Britain currently without step-free access.

Stations will need to be nominated by the industry and need support from the local MP. You may therefore wish to contact Northern, the local train operator, to ensure Brinnington is a priority for them.
