Moscow Transport for Inclusive Rides
Motto of the International Day of Disabled Persons is inclusive and sustainable post-pandemic world, with respect the needs of persons with disabilities. Our city has become much more adapted to the life of people with limited mobility in last years. An inclusive environment in urban transport plays a major role:
Passenger Mobility Center in the metro and on the ground operates successfully. Specialists accompany passengers with limited mobility along the entire route.
Braille on the turnstiles of the metro and in the ground, external speakers announce the number and route of the bus for visually impaired people.
Ground transport is low-floor-without steps and with ramps for passengers in wheelchairs or parents with children.
Special places for strollers and passengers with guide dogs are organized in any kind of buses, as well as buttons for communication with the driver for passengers with disabilities.
Ensuring the active participation of disabled people in society through convenient transport accessibility is one of the most important goals of the development of the city of Moscow.
