answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/09/2018 answer text <p>Currently all train operating companies will carry mobility scooters which can be folded. Most can also carry unfolded mobility scooters, provided that they do not exceed the measurements of the ‘reference’ wheelchair and can meet certain manoeuvrability criteria - such as turning circle and the ability to safely propel (or be propelled) on to the train via a boarding ramp. Decisions on the safe carriage of mobility scooters, which may depend on individual platform widths and heights, are best made by the train operating company and communicated to passengers via its mandatory Disabled People’s Protection Policy.</p> answering member constituency Orpington answering member printed Joseph Johnson question first answered 13/09/2018 16:22:00 answering member 4039 label Biography information for Lord Johnson of Marylebone
