Review accessibility of public transport for people with mobility disabilities

Open for signatures 58 signatures

What the petition asks

I believe all public transport should be made more accessible to those with mobility issues. Although most train stations have lifts, sometimes wheelchair users still need to book in advance and if lifts aren't available, they have to plan longer alternate journeys.
I believe that the government are in a position where they can work with all transport networks in order to build a more accessible world. In this day and age, I think people are defined by what they can do and I believe that empowering the disabled community would allow for more opportunities to be made available to them, and it starts with the ability to be self sufficient.
