Accessible Buses

Most of GRT's bus fleet consists of low-floor buses. They can be identified by the universal wheelchair symbol displayed on the front and sides of the bus.

This means the operator can lower the front of the bus, allowing it to "kneel." That enables passengers who have difficulty stepping on a bus to board more easily. Accessible buses also have a ramp so passengers with mobility devices such as a cane, walker, wheelchair or small scooter can board the bus on a gentle incline.

Accessible buses have designated seating at the front for passengers using a mobility device.

Low-floor accessibility buses make up over 85 per cent of our fleet, and GRT is committed to purchasing only those buses in the future. Currently, the following routes have exclusively low-floor buses:
