RE: Disabled access at Evesham Station. Why all the fuss, delay and expense about this? The answer is easy; replace the original barrow crossing (just a few sleepers). Install protective signals ("Caution - cross only when light shows"). If this is still safe practice at Shrub Hill, why not here also? But this is of course far too simple. The HSE would bring its big battalions into play - risk assessments, safety cases etc. So, dear people of Evesham who cannot manage the footbridge, go to Pershore (if you can find a parking space).
