As work continues to set up a Disability Advisory Group in Portsmouth, Parliament’s Transport Committee is looking for views on how accessible transport really is.
Transport in the city is a key issue for the new group, who will work to ensure that the concerns of Portsmouth’s disabled people are heard and acted on.
The group is being established and run by disabled people and will work both proactively to identify issues of concern to those with physical disabilities, and reactively as a sounding board for local organisations looking for specific advice.
The Transport Committee has produced a survey seeking the views on how accessible transport is for those with physical disabilities.
The Committee would like to hear of the barriers faced by people with disabilities and the experience in the UK of using buses, trains and taxis. Are certain types of transport better than others? How can existing legislation be improved?
