One of the biggest risks to passenger safety is when they stand and do not hold on to the handrails, because they fear that they are not clean. This was stated by the head of the London Underground, Andy Lord, according to which the fears of passengers are unfounded. In August, researchers from the Royal University of London found no signs of coronavirus at the four main train stations or intercity connections.

According to the Lord, seniors are also at risk, who often fall when trying to place luggage on the escalator. The increase in the number of passengers under the influence of alcohol following the release of epidemic measures also contributed to more frequent falls. Most falls were recorded on Thursday and Friday evenings or on weekends. TfL, which regularly cleans vehicles and subway buildings, therefore plans to place devices on all handrails that use ultraviolet radiation to destroy all virus particles. In some places, the transport company installed them last year.
