Accessibility Feature in Scotland App

Accessible and Inclusive Transport for Scotland

The Scotland Transport: Wheelchair, Maps, Routeplanner was developed in response to the Scotland MaaS Investment Fund Challenge. Our solution is a customer-facing MaaS app (iOS, Android, and mobile web) that:

Aims to help Transport Scotland to tackle inequality, accessibility and mobility barriers
Encourages the inclusion and participation of people with limited mobility in using a multi-modal transport app for Scotland
Provides vital information such as wheelchair friendly routes, rail stations, bus services, stops and information on the closest toilet locations and accessible parking
Uses accessibility information on bus stops and rail routes to guide customers on right footpaths, ramps, wheelchair friendly lifts and mobility options

This journey planning app is a customised version of the Waverley Transport App that will provide a quick and easy way to travel across Scotland by rail or by road. First-time travellers and people with limited mobility can have a safer journey and a sense of security during the commute.
