Step free access stalled at Whitton station due to poor project management

Caroline Pidgeon joined local Lib Dem Richmond Councillor Piers Allen at Whitton Station. The step free access works here have been significantly delayed due to poor project management. The works ceased due to line closures as they could not get a crane in place to carry on the works.

Caroline said: “Whitton Station, like all stations across London, needs step free access. The fact that passengers are being denied this due to poor project management is not good enough. Network Rail must get a grip with the project management and work closer with the train operating companies to ensure this type of setback ceases to happen.”
