Using easy access buses
A few things to remember when you use
an easy access bus:
- When the bus arrives, the driver will lower the bus and / or
lower the ramp to pavement level.
- Once on the bus, reverse into the dedicated area for
wheelchairs so you are facing the back of the bus.
- Remember to apply the handbrake.
- If you have any difficulties, please ask the driver for
assistance.
- Look for the symbol on the side of the bus.
Wheelchairs and scooters
Wheelchair users will be able to board the bus if:
- The bus is equipped with a wheelchair space
- The wheelchair space is unoccupied
- The total carrying capacity of the bus would not be
exceeded
- Motorised wheelchairs and those carrying oxygen tanks are
permitted on buses providing they are not too large for the
wheelchair space.
- Motorised scooters, with handlebars or steering loops, are not
allowed on buses.
- The wheelchair ramp will be used if it is safe to do so.
Unfortunately however it may not be possible to use the ramp if the
bus is prevented from reaching the kerb by other vehicles.
Guide dogs and assistance dogs
Guide dogs, hearing and other assistance dogs are allowed on
easy access buses.
