Record of complaints from impaired people on Wellington Bus Service

Abbie Winspear made this Official Information request to Wellington Regional Council

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Abbie Winspear to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Abbie Winspear

Dear Wellington Regional Council,

My name is Abbie and I'm doing a design research project on buses and what design features on a typical bus service may cause issues to people who are in any way impaired. I am requesting a record of complaints regarding the Wellington Bus Service from the last year (2019/2020).
I am specifically interested in complaints from people who are in some way impaired, be that physically, sensory, visually, mentally, linguistically. Even struggling as a consequence of age, pregnancy or economic position.

An example of this may be something along the lines of: "As someone who is blind, I am not able to see where we are and so cannot request to get off the bus at the correct time"

If specific complaints such as this are not easily accessible, I would appreciate a sample size of general complaints regarding the bus service from the last year.

Any information you can give me is appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Yours faithfully,

Abbie
