The main objective of this project was to
- promote awareness around the accessibility of transport services for persons with reduced mobility,
- increase the implementation of measures and policies that promote accessibility for persons with reduced mobility, and
- strengthen the rights of this category of travellers before, during, and after their journey.
We achieved this in two ways:
- We created a structured compilation of best practices that promote travel for persons with reduced mobility. In doing so, we considered all types and aspects of transport, including infrastructure, vehicles, technical solutions, processes, and personal assistance.
- We drew up a guide for future development of policies, actions, measures, or strategies that increase accessibility for persons with reduced mobility.
