Track work in 2018–19, which included replacement of platform edges at several stops, triggered requirements for accessibility modifications at those stops.[2] Dean Road was the only non-accessible C Branch stop not included in these plans and may be consolidated with nearby stops. As of November 2023, construction of the work at other stations is expected to take place from mid-2025 to spring 2026.[3]
