TRAVELLING ON
PUBLIC TRANSPORT
The wheelchair should be put in a special area for
wheelchairs. The wheelchair should face opposite
the direction of travel. The back of the wheelchair
must be located against a fixed object such as a
row of seats or a partition. Make sure the user can
easily reach any hand rails or handles. Use belts and
harnesses in the chair to hold the user. Use safety
belts if available to secure the user in the vehicle.
Please be aware that wider wheelchairs have
wider turning radius and reduced
manoeuvrability in vehicles. Smaller
wheelchairs generally provide greater ease
of vehicle access and manoeuvrability to a
forward facing position.
