O.K. folks for all you transit advocates in the U.K. I am wondering does the Disability Discrimination Act prohibit discrimination in the provision of transportation sevices to disabled persons? Does this mean that the U.K. folks all ride accessible buses? With the passage of teh ADA, accessibility increased dramaticaly in the U.S. In Canada, we now have a number of human rights cases arguing that inequity in receipt of transit services is discrimination and should not be tolerated in a fair and democratic society. The cases have been dragging on for more than two years. If people are interested, please e-mail me off list and I will refer you onward. Any help with info in the U.K. woould be greatly appreciated.
