Photo of escalator adapted wheelchair

Since 21st century, Japan have many in public space specially train stations. When a wheelchair user comes, the train staff stop the escalator and operate the button. 3 flat board come after a while and ride on it. Electric wheelchair users also can use it. Some manual wheelchair do not use it because it takes a time (3-5 min /each), need to call the staff, and normal passengers cannot use during this operation. This escalator is not the best solution, but it is a good option if no space to make a lift.
