Accessibility of Public Transport for People with Disabilities: Discussion (Resumed)
1:30 pm
Mr. Ray Hernan:
We have been challenged as an organisation on many fronts and we know that we have been deficient in certain respects but we have made huge progress over quite a number of years on the accessibility of our fleet, etc. There are many things to be done with a number of stakeholders to continue to improve that service. We will try to do everything within our power to improve the service on board our buses and modernise our fleet, but that is only part of the provision of accessibility. The accessibility of bus stops is at this point the key impediment to providing a broad service for people with disabilities.
