Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps his Department is taking to ensure that all train station platforms have warning tactile flooring installed to assist blind and partially sighted people when travelling by train.

We are committed to making sure that 100 percent of British mainline station platforms are fitted with tactile surfaces and Network Rail has received an initial £10 million to install tactile paving at priority stations not already funded.

Tactiles have since been installed at a number of stations including Bournemouth, Chiswick and Overton with more to come.

I will make further announcements on future rounds of funding in due course.
