“For social inclusion of civil servants living with disabilities, arrangements have been concluded with private sector operators to acquire customized buses that will be wheelchair accessible.
“The buses will have lower steps, customized ramps and spaces within the buses to enable physically-challenged staff on wheelchairs or crutches to commute with ease,” she said.
The pilot phase covers six routes of the FCT and its environs, while other routes will be inclusive in the nearest future.
