Platforms at each of the 5 new stations will be directly accessible via lifts and escalators. Platforms widths will be generous for easy use of mobility aids

TGSIs will notify passengers of upcoming stairways, ramps, escalators, lifts, gatelines, railway and tram platforms, bus stops and pedestrian crossings.
