Yes, I believe that’s what Welsh Kiwi was told.

Maybe more disabled people could have seen the Ritchie concert if there was an adequate 2nd platform in place.

If they had built it in the right place in the first place this wouldn't have been an issue

Anyone involved in the decision to not proceed with the building of this platform should resign with immediate effect, they are not fit to represent the owners

Whilst I support the disabled platform construction, there is an issue with safe egress from the lower GUS. Sounds like the ground safety committee have had an input here.
The platform has been redesigned at least 2 times and for what the DSA gain, 3 or 4 spaces with carers we could lose a lot more if the exit is impeded by this as it fits across part of the steps in that corner.
I honestly believe that there is a much better though more expensive solution to provide additional disabled spaces in the lower GUS.
