Network Rail engineers have installed two new lifts at Bridlington Station.

Engineers worked to install two new lifts to the station's historic footbridge, making connections between platforms easier and more accessible.

The bridge has also been given a new lease of life as Network Rail teams have worked to replace the deck and strengthen its wider structure to protect it for years to come.

Completion of the £5 million scheme means that it is easier for people with reduced mobility, pushchairs, bikes, heavy luggage, or very important (and fragile!) sticks of rock to move between platform 4 and platforms 5 and 6.

Anna Weeks, principal programme sponsor for Network Rail's North & East route, said: "It's brilliant that we have been able to provide an improved and more accessible route between platforms at Bridlington station. The work that has been completed will greatly enhance the experience of passengers and make it easier for them to navigate the station.

"This project has not been without its challenges, and I want to thank passengers for their patience while we carried out this vital work."
