Newcastle market accessibility

Plan a comfortable route through your festive visit.

Ask the event organiser about the market route and temporary facilities. Nexus says Metro stations have level access, ramps or lifts, but platform gaps and steps vary: read its station access guide and check live lift information. Eldon Square lists accessible toilets in Grey’s Quarter and St George’s Way, with a RADAR key needed. Check the centre’s opening hours and current closure notices before relying on a particular facility.

Plan the whole journey

Ask about the route from your arrival point, surfaces, gradients, accessible toilets and any attraction you intend to book. Confirm room and bathroom requirements directly with your hotel before paying. Allow time for crowds and a warm break.

Does a walking time establish a step-free route?

No. Walking estimates and map pins are navigation aids, not an audit of kerbs, gradients, surfaces or accessible entrances. Confirm the approach and any essential facilities before travelling.

Can I assume a hotel has a suitable accessible room?

No. Ask the property directly about the room, bathroom, entrance and any equipment you need before paying. A hotel’s location or map walking time does not establish room accessibility.
