Platform and Train Access Features
To reduce obstacles and enhance safety, special devices are needed to ensure smooth boarding and alighting, particularly when the train’s height does not align with the platform.
- Install devices (such as lifts or elevating platforms) to bridge the gap between the train and the platform.
- Ensure mobile equipment (such as onboard elevators) is available when the platform height does not align with the train.
