across Great Britain, we have introduced the “REAL” cross-modal disability awareness
training syllabus, relaunched the Inclusive Transport Leaders Scheme, and are requiring
the provision of audible and visible information onboard local bus and coach services.</p><p>
</p><p>Disabled people should be able to use transport services easily, confidently
and without additional cost wherever they travel. All transport authorities have an
important role to play in supporting accessible services which reflect local need.</p>
