Thameslink: Accessibility

Summary

The Thameslink Programme has improved accessibility at Blackfriars, Farringdon, London Bridge and West Hampstead Thameslink. Accessibility humps have also been installed at all central London Thameslink stations, ensuring passengers with reduced mobility have step-free access for the first time.

Meanwhile, the new fleet of state-of-the-art Class 700 trains provide enhanced accessibility features and are fully compliant with the latest disability legislation.
