We want to hear from the community about the design of accessibility upgrades at train stations in your area.

We are making public transport options safer and more accessible by upgrading train stations across NSW as part of the Safe Accessible Transport program. This will be done by installing new lifts, widening platforms, and improving signage and wayfinding to make it easier for people with disabilities to use their local stations. These station upgrades will help us meet compliance with the Disability Standards for Accessible Public Transport (DSAPT).

While funding is not yet available for delivery of the upgrades at these stations, the next phase of the project pending funding includes the Review of Environmental Factors (REF) for planning approval and detailed design development prior to commencing construction.

Who have we engaged with so far?

We have been engaging with people with disability and the carers of people with disability who live near, or who would like to use the train stations. We have held design workshops with representatives from People with Disability Australia and Guide Dogs Australia and these have helped shape the concept designs for our accessibility upgrades. We have also engaged with local councils and had workshops with the local council accessibility reference groups. We would now like to invite comment from the wider community.

Be a part of the design process

We would like to invite comment from the community on the concept designs for accessible upgrades at Lawson, Mount Victoria and Woodford stations. Your feedback will help the project team design a better station for everyone, including people with disabilities and the elderly, once the project moves into the detailed design phase. Currently, the project is only funded for concept design.
