There is a more useful and cheaper alternative: that each railway be allowed
to open new inaccessible stations so long as the number of inaccessible
stations on that company's network gradually goes down. So if they opened up
a new branch with three stations where wheelchair access would be expensive,
relatively pointless or impossible, they could make up for it by making six
other stations wheelchair accessible elsewhere on the network where it was
cheaper and/or more useful. The current rules make certain new stations
financially unviable, helping neither the disabled nor the able bodied.


I presume you intend that suggestion to be taken with the same
seriousness as your inverted name.
