We are committed to improving the accessibility of the rail network. Whenever the industry installs, replaces or renews station infrastructure this needs to meet current EU and UK accessibility standards or a dispensation needs to be secured. Failure to comply with these rules can lead to enforcement action by the Office of Rail and Road. Information on the facilities available at stations in Great Britain is collated and held by the Rail Delivery Group and not the Department.
