Dynamic Passenger Information for the Vision Impaired           31-08-2009 In 1997, the public transport operator in Prague renewed its passenger information systems for its tram and bus networks with on-board and stop-based equipment (bus and tram).

Design of stops and stations for level-access of busses and tramways: Leipzig, Germany               02-09-2009 At the time of German reunification there were no stops or stations with same-level boarding in Leipzig. Until then, tramway boarding was in most cases from the track in the roadway, even on lines with the tram running in separated tracks with stop islands in between. Some of these stops provide a higher bottom step level of 8-10 cm. The tram boarding level for Tatra vehicles was approx. 30 cm with two more steps to reach the floor some 90 cm above the top of the rail. This was a difficult undertaking, especially for older passengers. People with restricted mobility were rarely able to use these trams without special assistance. Some years after the reunification, private automobiles lured many passengers away from public transport.

Passenger information in real time with barrier-free infos on all information points within the municipal area of Graz             12-12-2008 GVB, the Graz public transport operator, strives to make public transport even more attractive. For this reason passenger information at bus and tram stops and stations within the municipal area of Graz displays the next lines (number of line and final stop) in real-time, each with their actual expected departure times. Since March 2006 all of these 150 GVB information points also display the letter "N" or a wheelchair symbol respectively, to show if the particular vehicle (tram/bus) is a low-floor vehicle and accessible in a barrier-free way. This facilitates the planning of the trip, especially where wheelchair users, persons using a walking frame, carrying heavy luggage or passengers with a pushchair are concerned.
