Priority seating * USA - Who should get it in on city buses?
Ottawa,ONT,CAN -CBC News, by POV -February 18, 2010: -- Senior and disabled transit riders in Ottawa appear to have lost a bid to win more ground at the front of the bus from stroller-pushing parents... On Wednesday, the city's transit committee decided not to vote on recommendations brought forward by advisory groups representing seniors and people with disabilities on managing the priority seating at the front of the bus. Instead, the committee chose to send an earlier staff recommendation on its transit stroller policy to city council... Seniors and people with disabilities had argued the staff recommendation wasn't tough enough. They wanted: Wheelchair users, people with disabilities and seniors to be officially given higher priority than parents with strollers for seats at the front of the bus... Strict limits on the size of strollers allowed on buses... (Photo: bus interiour)Labels: rules and regulations
