Dear all,
I don't know about advice but one of my great friends (Professor Sally Baldwin) was killed when a Travelator collapsed at Rome railway station. You can see the details if you google this, Sorry to sound a note of depression into this.
Best wishes,
Anthea

Hi
Does anyone know if there is any guidance on the accessibility / means of escape relating to travelators (not escalators)?
Are they accessible for wheelchair users? Does anyone have any experience or best practice?
