Question
To ask the Scottish Government what recent assessment it has made of the relationship between staffing levels at railway stations on the ScotRail network and the accessibility of public transport.
Answer
Our vision is that all disabled people can travel with the same freedom, choice, dignity and opportunity as other citizens.
Whilst staffing levels are an operational matter for ScotRail, the importance of staff being deployed appropriately in stations and on trains to enhance the passengers’ experience, including accessibility, is clear.
