Accessibility & UITP

No passenger left behind. An inclusive society ensures equal access to opportunity, and public transport plays a big role in making this a reality.

Let’s be clear: equal access does not mean equal treatment. People have varying needs, including a range of disabilities. Globally, one in seven people live with a disability – 80% of whom in developing countries.

UITP is the worldwide voice and platform of the public transport sector, bringing together all stakeholders to improve urban environments and remove barriers, both physical and digital.

Through dialogue, projects, knowledge, and research, UITP leads the sector to implement inclusive and sustainable mobility.
