Information on platform heights and offsets across the UK rail network

The request was refused by Network Rail Limited.

Dear Network Rail Limited,

I wish to make a freedom of information request for the following information:

1. Data showing measurements of platform heights and offsets on all platforms in the UK network, allowing measurements at specific platforms to be identified.

2. Details of planned work involving platform reconstructions or adjustments that will affect platform heights and offsets. Specifically to include locations, deadlines for completion and schedules for work to begin

3. Information regarding policy and procedures for providing assistance to disabled passengers at network rail managed stations, specifically Paddington, Euston, Reading and Waterloo. Specifically to include how assistance is to be provided when it has not been pre-booked, and which staff teams (i.e. platform staff, TOC staff and/or mobility assistance staff) at the station are allowed to operate ramps.

Yours faithfully,

Jon Hastie
