Overview

London Underground is installing Wide Aisle Gates (WAGs) in many of its stations.

These are wide automatic gates, suitable for use by wheelchair users, those with Guide or Assistance dogs and customers with large luggage or pushchairs.

They’re operated in the same way as the normal automatic gates and there will normally be one in the entrance and exit section of each gate line.

In some stations, such as Victoria, Wide Aisle Gates have replaced the manual gates, though staff are still on hand to assist as necessary.

Location

In the Circle Line Concourse

There are two Wide Aisle Gates in the Circle Line concourse:

• at the right-hand end of the exit gate line, as you're leving the station,
• beyond the foot of the four steps towards the Victoria Line concourse, to the right of the regular automatic gate, as you enter the station.

In the Victoria Line Concourse

There are two Wide Aisle Gates in the Victoria Line concourse, one at each end of the gate line.
