The BBC are reporting work has started on new lifts and a new footbridge Leatherhead to make it fully accessible.

I couldn't see a thread covering this.

The footbridge in the photographs didn't look that old but then I realised these are mock-ups for the new footbridge.

Work has begun on £6.2m of improvements to make a train station in Surrey fully accessible.

Network Rail said the installation of two new lifts and a new footbridge began at Leatherhead station on Monday.

It said this would make it easier for passengers with limited mobility, visual impairments, and those travelling with luggage, pushchairs and bicycles to get around the station.

The work is expected to be completed in spring 2025.
