Lift safety

Keeping safe in our lifts

This page has moved

Thank you for visiting us. This information has now moved to the Health and safety compliance page on the council's website.

The thought of being shut in a lift is not a happy prospect for anyone – but we are making sure that anyone who finds themselves stranded in any one of our 338 lifts knows exactly what to do.

We have fitted every lift with new signage displaying the new emergency phone number to call should you need assistance. New lifts have a phone link to our call centre and lift contractors.
