Australians have ranted about the ‘leaning rails’ popping up at train stations and bus stops in place of traditional seating options.
Some have furiously claimed the unusual rails have replaced seating in most metropolitan areas in order to ‘dissuade the homeless‘ from camping out on platforms.
However, both NSW Transport and Queensland Rail told FEMAIL the bars are designed as an ‘alternative resting option’ where there’s ‘no room for traditional seating’.
Others slammed the rails for being ‘utterly useless’ for the elderly and disabled who are the ‘main people who use seats at stations’.
Singer Justin Standley poked fun at the ‘ridiculous’ installments at a Brisbane train station in a video which has since gone viral.
