If the problem should be mechanical: While other customers are invited to board the next bus, the wheelchair user is invited either to stay on the bus or to move to a more secure location with the help of a Supervisor.

If the next low-floor bus is expected in less than 30 minutes, the wheelchair user is invited to wait and board this next bus. Otherwise, the Supervisor calls for a paratransit minibus.

The wheelchair user boards the minibus and is carried to destination.

Customers with a mobility impairment waiting at bus stop
