Tooting station gets step-free access with two new lifts
Briefly

Tooting station in south London has recently gained step-free access with the installation of two lifts. Operational since February 10th, 2025, these lifts were carefully designed to fit into a confined space next to the existing stairs. Although smaller than typical lifts, they incorporate double-sided doors, allowing passengers to enter and exit more easily. Given its location and constraints, the installation significantly enhances the accessibility of the station, which is served by Thameslink trains, providing a crucial improvement for users with mobility challenges.
