Project objective The purpose of the project proposal recommended in this report is to introduce within the Network Rail controlled infrastructure an unobstructed “accessible route” from at least one station entrance and all drop-off points associated with that entrance, to each platform and between platforms served by passenger trains. The Department for Transport (DfT) definition of an accessible route is one that; can be negotiated by the user of a manually self-propelled wheelchair; ideally, does not exceed 400m, from station entrance (or drop off point if further) to the appropriate point of entry/exit of stationed trains; Satisfies all applicable requirements of ‘DfT Accessible Train and Station Design for Disabled People: A Code of Practice’ (version 03, November 2011) except where prior dispensations have been agreed. The specific infrastructure required to achieve this should be determined during outline design, GRIP Stage 4. In addition to meeting the specific objective of providing an accessible route, there are three discretionary elements of project scope that must be considered on a station by station basis. These are the provision of; platform edge tactile paving obstacle-free access to (but not into) station operator facilities obstacle-free access to (but not into) station retail facilities 2.

Platform 1 adjacent to station buildings, platform 2 and 3 on an island platform. General relationship of platforms to topography. The station as a whole is relatively level with the immediate surroundings How are platforms constructed? Platforms are of traditional solid fill build with brickwork riser walls.

Page 4 of 22 DfT ‘Access for All’ Programme GRIP 3: Penrith Station Option Selection Report Is there an obstacle free route to all TOC facilities? No. The entrance to the station building and ticket issuing window are step free. Access to platform 1 from the station building is step free (but slightly unlevel). There is a disabled toilet located on Platform 1 within the station building. Access to Platform 2/3 is via a subway (stairs down and up). At the base of the subway stairs the subway floor slopes down to a level section directly underneath the tracks. These sloped sections are visibly non compliant. The entrance to the waiting room on Platform 2 comprises a single step (with no hand rails). Disabled access to Platform 2/3 is via the platform end ramp at the north end of Platform 1 (with locked access gate), across a barrow crossing and via a path back to a gate at the north end of platform 2 (locked). This route is largely uncovered and the distance from the point on the platform by the open entrance by the subway to a corresponding point on the downside platform is 215m (162m of this is uncovered). This requires station staff supervision and authorisation. Is there an obstacle free route to all station retail facilities? Yes.

Project name: See More - Cumbria and the Lake District A2. Headline description: ‘See More – Cumbria and the Lake District’ is a programme of work which will maximise the economic benefit of travel in the county by focussing on the quality of visitor travel to Cumbria’s international destinations, particularly the Lake District. The programme comprises: · Development of key visitor gateways and associated corridors that will improve access to the main destinations; · Design and implementation of world class quality visitor focussed transport services; and · Information, marketing and promotion: making sense of complex geography and nudging visitors to use sustainable transport. We estimate that the benefit:cost ratio for the proposed mutually supportive package of measures exceeds 4.3. Visitors to Cumbria, and in particular the Lake District, generate £2.1 billion to Cumbria’s economy.
