The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan has announced plans to provide step-free access at Harrow-on-the-Hill station.
Local stakeholder groups joined Navin Shah on Tuesday by the steps of Harrow On The Hill station at 4pm to mark the London Mayor’s announcement and celebrate the success of their sustained campaign for step-free access at Harrow On The Hill station.
The campaign for strep-free access to Harrow On The Hill station was spearheaded by local London Assembly Member Navin Shah who campaigned with stakeholder groups such as Harrow Association of Disable People, Harrow Mencap and Age UK Harrow.
Labour’s London Assembly Member for Brent and Harrow, Navin Shah AM, said: “I welcome Mayor Khan’s announcement for step free access at Harrow-on-the-Hill station. I have been campaigning to improve accessibility at this station for at least 10 years alongside local resident groups and stakeholder bodies such as Harrow Association of Disabled People and Harrow Mencap.
‘’The previous Mayor, Boris Johnson withdrew funding and halted works to make this station accessible and failed to respond to growing concerns about poor accessibility for disable, elderly people and parents with buggies at this station.
‘’I would like to thank the Mayor Khan and the Deputy Mayor for Transport, Val Shawcross for acting quickly to improve the transport infrastructure since arriving at City Hall 7 months ago.”
