The branch’s ATM, looking out onto Dartmouth Road, is currently inaccessible to wheelchair users, while the ATM queue, in combination with a relatively narrow pavement and bus shelter, can lead to congestion on the pavement.

The bank’s investment in the refurbishment offers an opportunity to potentially rectify this, while also addressing the operational efficiency of the branch, moving the ATM into a secure area for easier servicing. The London Road elevation faces onto a wider, less cluttered pavement, and relocating and dropping the ATM to make it accessible can be achieved by relocating it to beneath the rightmost window.
