The conversation over the Land Transport Authority's (LTA) «First to Board, First to Use» trial has evolved beyond strollers and prams, with wheelchair users and disability advocates weighing in their concerns on accessibility needs and wants. The Disabled People's Association (DPA) said in an Instagram post on Sunday (July 26): «A wheelchair doesn't fold. A stroller usually does.» «For wheelchair users, that bay isn't a preference — it's often the only way to travel accessibly and affordably. »Better bus designs can serve wheelchair users and parents with strollers. Removing an access need shouldn't be the trade-off,« it added. The »First to Board, First to Use" trial is part of an initiative to make public transport more inclusive for commuters.
