Carstairs
Network Rail has announced plans for a new footbridge at Carstairs station.
The project will also see a lift installed in the station to improve accessibility, particularly for those with reduced mobility and those travelling with luggage, prams or bikes.
Funded by the Scottish Government, the £1.85m investment will enable passengers to move from street to platform at the South Lanarkshire station without the need to use stairs.
Work is now underway to install the new bridge which will connect on to the island-platform at the station from the village’s Strawfrank Road.
It is scheduled to be completed by September this year and follows significant platform improvements in 2023.
