Evac+Chairs from Evac+Chair International are now in place at Twickenham Stadium to provide a quick and safe means of emergency stairway descent for mobility impaired visitors.
The 82,500 capacity stadium has a large number of mobility impaired people attending matches and events. As such, the stadium had to make provisions for transporting them downstairs in the event of lift failure, particularly in the south stand where the mobility impaired seating area is in the middle tier not at lower floor level. They also needed to be able to move people with a medical emergency from within the seating bowl downstairs to a level landing in order for medical teams to take over.
