Wheelchair access
All passenger vehicles are accessible to wheelchair users. Most have removable seats to accommodate a number of wheelchair users (15-34 seat buses) all of which carry clamps/wheelchair securing systems.
The removal of seats to accommodate wheelchairs reduces the seating capacity. As a general rule the following applies (obviously this is dependent on the size of the wheelchairs).
- 1 Wheelchair = 4 seats removed
- 2 Wheelchairs = 6 seats removed
- 3 wheelchairs = 10 seats removed
