With luggage, a stroller, or a large bag, a route with fewer stairs can be more useful than the shortest route. DoTheG helps you check the car and door nearest an elevator at your destination before you board.

The nearest elevator is not always the nearest street exit

A door near a platform elevator may still require another elevator or a longer route to reach street level. Read it as the position nearest the elevator on that platform, not a guarantee of a step-free trip to every exit.

Consider your final address, transfers, and luggage before leaving. A slightly longer route with wider passages and fewer stairs can be easier in practice.

How to check elevator positions in DoTheG

Confirm the destination station, line, and train direction first. Then select the fast-exit position closest to an elevator. At stations with multiple lines, take extra care to choose the correct line.

Check the platform and screen-door car and door markings before boarding. Use the app together with local signs because formations and access routes can vary.

Allow extra time and verify lift service

Elevator queues, crowded platforms, and long transfer corridors can add time beyond a map estimate. Travel with extra time, especially during rush hour or after events.

Fast-exit information does not guarantee live elevator operation. Check official notices and station signs before travel, and prepare an alternative station or route if elevator access is essential.
