Position

CCTV signs are required in order to comply with the Data Protection and Freedom of Information Acts. They should be fi xed in the following key locations:

• on interchange concourses a single sign should be fi tted facing each entry point.• on platforms, they should be fi tted on either side of each main entry/exit point to/from the platform.

For CCTV signs at station entrances, the combined CCTV/No smoking version should be used—refer to sheet 3.7.Where additional signs are seen as a requirement, eg. due to high crime levels, care should be taken not to use too many signs, as this may lead to the area appearing hostile and increase customer anxiety.CCTV signs should not be fi xed at every camera point.

1.2 Priority seat sign

Material


Do not scale


Position Priority seat signs should be fi tted above designated priority seats which should make up 20% of platform seating.

Signs are to be centred over seat at a height of 1500mm to bottom edge. Where seating is in open areas, and there is no surface for fi xing a sign above the seat, the smaller seat mounted version may be used as detailed on page 1.3.

Priority seats should be evenly distributed throughout station ticket halls, routeways and platforms, including waiting rooms.
