The closest railway station to The Hawthorns is a 5 minute walk or wheel away from the stadium and has accessible waiting spaces and other types of signage on both platforms.
Blue and white boxes that feature a white wheelchair logo and the words “for mobility assistance, please wait here” can be found at the end of each platform.
There is also signage mounted to a brick wall on the platforms indicating where to wait should you require assistance to board services home or back into Birmingham city centre
When supporters arrive back at the station after the match later which kicks off at 20:00 they should head to the dedicated waiting spaces to wait for there train to arrive if requiring assistance.
If you would like to book your assisted travel ahead of time, this can be done up to 2 hours before departure in 1 of 3 ways:
By Phone: 0800 024 8998 or by using Next Generation Text – 18001 0800 024 8998.
Online: https://booking.passengerassistance.com.
By using the App: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/passenger-assistance/id1542190496.
However you do have a legal right to just turn up and go without booking any assistance prior to travel.
