Should the government require public transportation systems to be fully accessible to people with disabilities?

No

No, the cost of adapting every bus and train to suit a tiny minority seems to outweigh the benefits when a subsidising an on-demand, Uber-like service could be done instead

Yes, there won’t always be a time when the car or van can’t work, I personally believe that the whole of the TFL should be accessible.

Retrospectively apply to Existing when it makes sense too on a individual basis, All new going forward should be accessible.

yes, within reason though. some councils have spent money for only a couple of users. Must undertake studies to determing use

Yes, of course. It's a no-brainer! Access to public transport for people with disabilities in this country is dire and they don't all have access to their own transport (eg: Motability adapted vehicles).

It should be encouraged and implemented but as long as all services are accessible even with the assistance of employees but disabled people should be able to use transportation services without too much hindrance

Yes, but only where it is practically possible and isn't economically damaging.

That depends on the definition of disability. That can mean anything and everything.

Only where it is not cost prohibitive to the taxpayer or organisations that may pass those costs on to them

I'm leaning towards irrelevant questioning but I believe public transportation is inclusive enough to people with disabilities

No because private companies will do it anyway as there is a profit incentive and it will speed up the boarding process for disabled travellers

Yes but only where the building/terrain allows it. Listed buildings etc should be exempt from ugly additions and find other methods of being disabled - friendly such as ramps and more facilities on the ground floor

In an ideal world yes, however many UK transport systems are dated and the money is better spent on new infrastructure

Only where it is possible to improve existing infrastructure. All new infrastructure should be implemented with this in mind.

FULLY accessible to people with ALL types of disabilities is probably impossible to achieve, but it should be the goal

Depends on the extent to which systems can be adapted within a reasonable cost, and whether there are already-existing accessible modes nearby

all new infrastructure shoule be required to be accessible, and old infrastructure required to be updated but with exemptions e.g. some old and deep tube stations would be physically or financially extremely challenging to retrofit

No - as much as possible but need to be pragmatic that some rural services wouldnt be viable if this was the case

Yes, for new systems, and as far as practicable for existing systems

Yes where it is possible to do add in to existing infrastructure and all future building should be accessible

Only in a roll out. It shouldn’t stop existing from running until the replacement is available otherwise you risk isolating people.
