New scheme to help disabled passengers

2 Jun 2015

Thirty railway stations in London are launching a new scheme to help disabled passengers.

The six-month trial, called 'Turn Up and Go', aims to help people who need assistance without them having to book ahead.

Currently support needs to be organised 24 hours before travelling.

"Many disabled Londoners already go by rail without booking assistance but we know that many more would like the extra confidence that catching a train can be a spontaneous decision for them.

Rail services are now far more accessible than ever, and we are committed to continuing to make travel by train an attractive prospect for disabled people."

- David Sindall, Head of Disability & Inclusion for the Rail Delivery Group
