Light rail accessibility standards

Light rail accessibility standards ensure that transit systems are usable by everyone, including people with disabilities. They require stations and vehicles to have features like ramps or elevators for easy access, tactile paving for safety, audible and visual announcements for convenience, and space for wheelchairs or mobility devices. These standards aim to create an inclusive environment where all passengers can navigate and use light rail services independently and comfortably, regardless of physical or sensory limitations.
