I understand a majority of buses are accessible and yet as each year comes, the ratio of these buses reduces. Yet it happens that in "Peak Times" some of these buses are released. I thought by now there would be more accessible buses placed into service. Now Busways does not supply the buses
towards. Yesterday, I assisted a young mother from Hebersham struggling to get her pram with her young child, up the front stairs onto the bus. She found it difficult as I found the driver, not able to assist her. Maybe bus drivers have been given instructions not to assist. Just imagine if there are 3/4 prams coming into the bus and a wheelchair how would bus drivers cope. Bus drivers have assisted commuters in the past with commuters having difficulty being prams on. I personally would like to know the ratio of accessible to non accessible buses around the Mount Druitt area of Bus Region 1.
I will try to get an answer and see what the NSW Government is doing to attend to this.
