Wheelchair Accessible Buses bringing people together across the country

All vehicles can be adapted for wheelchair users and have either a ramp, or a lift. To ensure safe transport, bus drivers can assist with the attachment of your mobility aid or wheelchair to the vehicle. For those who want extra protection, shoulder and lap belts can be purchased at any position.

Wheelchair Accessible Buses will have power ramps that are operated by the driver in cities and towns. Rural routes may require ramps to be unrolled by the driver. Wheelchair accessible buses will usually have at least one wheelchair space. Even if you have limited strength, these seats can be folded up easily.

Easy Entry with Low-Floor Kneeling Buses

To make it easier to get into the bus, all full-size buses "kneel" (or lower) themselves.

No-Step Boarding

Ask the driver if they have a ramp or lift that you can use if you're unable to climb stairs. The driver will provide the ramp or lift so you can board the vehicle without any steps.

Audio Stop Announcements

to assist people with vision impairments, major stops will be announced audibly. Simply tell the driver where you want your stop to be announced. The driver will announce the stop.
