Service update

The escalators are out of order between platforms 6 and 7 and the footbridge at London Kings Cross station. Customers are advised to board services using the main concourse ticket gates and not the footbridge due to possible delays by using the lifts.

The lifts are out of order between platform 6 and platform 7 at London Kings Cross station. Step free access is still available from the main concourse.

This Great Northern replacement service will be a bus, coach or mini coach. When we provide rail replacement buses or coaches for planned disruption, we use accessible vehicles. If this is not possible, our Assisted Travel and frontline teams will always identify an alternative plan for you to complete your journey. If you need assistance or to discuss your journey requirements, please contact our Assisted Travel Team: 0800 058 2844 or 0800 138 1018 (Textphone)
