As a regular user of Edmonton Green station, I welcome the opening of the lifts, which was delayed several weeks after they were actually installed.

However, I am interested in Councillor Chris Bond’s comment: “These new lifts now make the station, and the surrounding area, truly accessible to everyone.”

As everyone who uses this station knows, the train doors are much higher than the platform and there are gaps between the train and the platform which, in certain places, can be considerable.

Cllr Bond is correct that the station is now accessible but makes no comment on whether the trains themselves will be accessible for everyone.
