According to the ProRail spokesperson, the failure of the lifts and escalators has various causes. He mentions wear and tear, water damage, but also travelers. “Sometimes this happens accidentally, for example because someone drives into it with a bicycle, but sometimes also deliberately. Train stations with a high risk of vandalism will receive extra camera security at the lifts. It concerns 15 stations, where a total of dozens of cameras will be installed. ” Wienen does not want to say which stations are involved.
