 Lee Ellery, an active supporter of Disabled Children Matter Wales, has been campaigning locally to urge First Cymru to make room for an extra wheelchair space on Swansea's new bendy buses. At the moment there is only space for one wheelchair.
Lee says: "Our concern is that two wheelchair users may want to travel on the same bus at the same time but won't be able to because there is only one space.
"Also, if the bus was to catch fire and the doors in the front got jammed, a disabled person could not get off because the emergency exit is up two steps and a narrow aisle.
"We are not happy about it."
More information on the campaign is available in an article from the Swansea Evening Post.
The campaign has also been featured on ITV Wales - you can watch the video on the ITV website. |
