The Victorian Council of Social Service, Disability Resources Centre and Disability Advocacy and Information Service have combined to run the Accessible Transport Watch Project.

The project aims to monitor and report on how well the Disability Standards for Accessible Public Transport have been implemented in Victoria.

The project has developed surveys for people with disability to use to assess how easy it is to use various types of public transport in metropolitan Victoria and in regional areas.

These surveys are being completed by as many people as possible in July and August and will then be compiled into a state-wide report.

You can learn more about the project, including finding out how to take part, by contacting the Accessible Transport Watch Project on 03 9654 5050 or be going to www.vcoss.org.au/what-we-do/transport/accessible.htm
