Require all train/tube stations to have step-free access

Closed 37 signatures

What the petition asks

I think that the Government should require all public transport stations (train, tube, DLR, etc.) to have step-free access, such as lifts, so they are accessible to disabled people and those with pushchairs.
It can be very hard for parents to travel with their child/children when using their pushchair and also for those using wheelchairs. As a parent, I find it frustrating having to ask people to help me get my child's pram up and down the stairs. If there were step-free access, this would really make transport easier for us.
