NETWORK Rail is investigating an incident on the sea wall at Dawlish in which a woman on a mobility scooter fell to her death. Members of Teignbridge Council said the incident near Lady’s Mile had had an impact on many residents.
Urgently install a sign prohibiting mobility scooters and warning that doing a U-turn is not advisable or feasible once on the wall. Cycling is already prohibited, unfortunately access for all and inclusivity isn't always possible.
