I confirm that we have reviewed the ATP against the 2019 “Accessible Travel Policy Guidance for Train and Station Operators” (the guidance).

I can confirm that GWR’s ATP now meets the requirements of Condition 5 of its station licence and GB Statement of National Regulatory Conditions: Passenger (SNRP). During the course of our exchanges, we discussed a number of commitments to implementing improvements beyond the limits of GWR’s current franchise term, which ends on 31 March 2020. These must be included in the revised ATP by 20 April 2020, should GWR continue to operate services under a new contract: The creation of a regular forum for engagement with disabled people in the North by April 2020, as well as specific details on the plans to actively promote Passenger Assist, including placing the passenger leaflet in prominent locations. You have indicated in discussions that GWR will use the forum to help inform this work; Publication and dissemination of a revised passenger leaflet within 8 weeks of the start of any new franchise.
