It’s important we all play our part to stay safe:

As L1 light rail service frequency is increasing, all customers must remember safe behaviours should always be followed.​

• Stay alert and be aware of your surroundings.
• Always use designated crossings and avoid distractions like mobile phone or headsets.
• Once on the platform, wait for others to get off before you board, and stand clear of doors closings.
• If you require assistance to board, wait in the wheelchair boarding zone.
• Take extra care and mind the gap.
• Once on board, hold on at all times: light rail vehicles might have to break at short notice to avoid an immediate hazard, even in the dedicated corridor section.
• If you need the wheelchair ramp at the next stop, let the driver know by pressing the blue button with an accessible symbol

Allow extra travel time and plan ahead using the Trip Planner or check travel alerts to see if your travel is affected, or to find alternative transport options.
