Coatdyke Railway Station

Date of visit: January 2015

I have experience of challenges around: moving around

Overall Rating

This station is very poor to get to platform 1 you have to go up two lots of stairs or via a rather steep ramp / path there is also a step at the top of the ramp/ path Platform one is for Glasgow and beyond. To access platform 2 to travel towards Edinburgh you have to use the over bridge again this means having to climb two sets of stairs to go up and two to get back down. It would be imposable to self propel up the ramp/path to platform 1 and it would be a struggle to push someone up in a chair. Power chairs would also struggle at the top end of the ramp/ path

Disabled Access In and Around

0

This station is not suitable for anyone in a wheelchair because of the access issues. A person who has a stick might manage to get up to stairs to platform 1 but this would be down to the individual person and there own ability.
