Recommendation 6

6

Adopt a rolling programme of rapid interventions for station accessibility upgrades.

Recommendation
Progress in implementing agreed accessibility upgrades at stations has been too halting, and delivery too slow and costly. The Department for Transport and its agencies and partners should consider adopting a different commissioning approach based on a rolling programme of rapid interventions, as opposed to individual station projects commissioned separately. By creating certainty and consistency for contractors, this should speed up delivery and lower costs. (Recommendation, Paragraph 60)
