Using Hadley Wood Station's Step Free Access

There can be many reasons why people will use our step free entrance (to and from Platform 4) with or without needing extra help from Great Northern’s Assisted Travel Scheme. It will make the station easier to use for anyone with heavy bags, bikes or buggies or anyone of any age with mobility issues or hidden disabilities that make stairs a problem. Download our Use the Step Free Access Guide here.
You can find out about bringing wheelchairs and mobility scooters on to Great Northern trains here.
