    No guarantee of help for disabled passengers, says Southern

    Not quite. There is a sign on the bus asking all passengers to vacate the space if a wheelchair user gets on. The woman apparently refused. The bus company now have to go further to enforce it. It doesn't say what happens if the person refuses. Unfortunately I don't think means specifically a...

    It isn't universally being read as that at all if you are referring to the bus case.

    No guarantee of help for disabled passengers, says Southern

    It's interesting reading in London. The situation with infrastructure has improved but that's come from a background when wheelchairs were banned on the underground until 1993.

    No guarantee of help for disabled passengers, says Southern

    I'm reading the situation (please correct if not) that there used to be a number of stations where a wheelchair user (for instance) could turn up and be guaranteed help. I've often seen that at Balham. They are out quick with the ramp. I also presume that with the other stations you take your...
