Wheelchair Access

All our Bwcabus vehicles have a dedicated area for wheelchair users. Wheelchair users have priority. If a pushchair or buggy is occupying the wheelchair space, the driver will ask that the buggy is folded. Aisles and gangways must be kept clear at all times. Whilst the vehicles are fully DDA compliant there is a restriction on some wheelchairs and the bus can only carry one wheelchair at any given time. Please contact the call centre for further information.

Buggies and Pushchair

Buggies and pushchairs are welcome on board our vehicles. Please note there is limited space for buggies on board our vehicles.  If there is a wheelchair or another buggy occupying the wheelchair space, the driver may ask you to fold it. For safety reasons please ensure you don’t block the aisles and gangways.
