FIND AN EXIT FROM A PLATFORM |
Describe Online |
There's level access to street level from the Underground Concourse, there's lift, escalator and stairs access from each platform.
The doors will open on your left as you face the front of the train. There is tactile paving along the edge of each platform.
At the time of our survey, there was no clear pattern to the order of automatic entrance/exit gates, however we did find that if you use the Wide Aisle gates at the ends of the gate line, the left-hand one was the one you needed.
