Does it include disabled access as well?

I doubt it. Level access will still be available over the level crossing. Possibly not on the permanent bridge that follows it too.

New access ramp to the down platform being built at the moment to bypass the narrow existing ramp beside the front of the signal box. Not seen any design for either the temporary or future bridge yet, as ever it is all about available funds.
