The Public Service Vehicles (Accessible Information) Regulations 2023 (AIR), require operators of local services to provide Audible and Visible (AV) route destination and location information helping all passengers, in particular disabled people to travel confidently.
To increase the supply of AIR compliant coaches, the Department for Transport (DfT) will fund the development of innovative technical solutions.
Organisations can apply for a share of up to £680,000, inclusive of VAT, to develop an affordable, user friendly hardware and software solution, which provides accessible audio visual information on coaches particularly rail replacement coaches.
