With just under a year to go before the Paris 2024 Olympics and Paralympics, campaigners are worried would-be spectators using wheelchairs could feel left out of the Games as only a small number of metro stations are accessible without using stairs.

    Same issue in NYC. Retrofitting old stations for accessibility is really expensive.

    Then you have constant upkeep in keeping the homeless from shitting in the corner of the elevator.

      Expensive, but NYC is making the costs far more than reasonable. There is a big cost problem in NYC, which combines with an unstated policy of not caring. (If they cared it would be done, but of course saying you don’t care is illegal)
