Our SGR has no ramp and nowhere did I say it has but our buses have one. I would be happy if it had one though.As it is right now wheelchairs zinaingia bila shida yoyote ile sasa embu tuambie hiyo ramp iwekwe kwa sababu zipi exactly?
Sgr train yenu ina ramp? Or does it clamp itself to the platform?
You see, as much as your platform is raised, the bus doesn't clamp to the platform hence it's harder to get a wheel chair inside. You analogy that as long as wheel chairs can get into the bus then the ramp is unnecessary is same as me saying as long as wheel chairs can get into matatus (which they can), then well designed BRT buses are unnecessary - that we can just used the normal matatus or daladalas for BRT. ............or as long as your grass thatched hut can shelter you, then there is no need for a decent modern bungalow or mansion. It's called progess. Try it, it improves quality of life.
