Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether he has had discussions with representatives of Southeastern Railway on the potential merits of step free access at Erith station.

I have recently launched the next round of nominations for the Access for All programme. All stations in Great Britain without step-free access will be a potential candidate. I would encourage the Hon Member for Erith And Thamesmead to engage with Southeastern to demonstrate that Erith station is a priority.
