London Eye Accessibility




http://www.sagetraveling.com/London-Eye-Accessibility
The accessible London Eye is the best view in town and is step-free. It
barely moves and takes 30 minutes to rotate so don’t worry about
motion sickness.




                                                     www.sagetraveling.com
• The path from the Westminster Bridge has steps, so approach from
  the east or from Waterloo Bridge.
• I have only given it a 3 Star Sage Accessibility Rating because the
  closest drop-off point is 150 m from the entrance.




                                                      www.sagetraveling.com
• The wheelchair accessible London Eye is located on the Thames River
  opposite Big Ben as shown in the picture on the left.
• The picture on the right shows the passenger capsules which give
  great views of the city below.




                                                   www.sagetraveling.com
Staff members will bring the London Eye to a complete stop to
put out a ramp for disabled visitors:




                                             www.sagetraveling.com
This is the shortest step-free route from Westminster Abbey to the
London Eye. Most tourists will take a left after going over Westminster
Bridge, but there is a flight of stairs. London wheelchair tourists should
continue straight and turn left on York Road.




                                                      www.sagetraveling.com
Is there an London Eye accessible entrance?
   Yes, there is a ramp (4 Star Sage Flatness) to get onto the London
   Eye. The ticket office is 50 m to the east of the London Eye and is
   also accessed by a ramp.
• Is the door push/pull, revolving, automated by a button, or motion
 activated? Motion activated




                                                    www.sagetraveling.com
Where is the closest place that cars/taxis can drop-off people?
   150 m to the east of London Eye, on Belvedere Street.
• What are the nearby tube stations? London Waterloo
• What bus lines pass nearby? Routes 77, 211, and 381




                                                   www.sagetraveling.com
Are there cobblestones or hills leading to the entrance?
There is a Sage 4 Star Flatness slope down from the drop-off spot to
the accessible London Eye. Also, the most direct route from
Westminster Square has steps after you cross Westminster
Bridge. You will need to stay on the sidewalk on Westminster Bridge
Road and take a left on Belvedere Road to get around the steps near
the river bank.




                                               www.sagetraveling.com
What percentage of the attraction can be viewed without having to
go up steps? 100%, the staff will put down a metal bridge so you can
cross the small gap to get onto the London Eye flight capsule
                      • Which parts are not accessible? All parts are
                        accessible
                      • Are there loaner wheelchairs? Yes and there
                        is a bench inside the flight capsule
