Studies on standards development
Although there is extensive knowledge at national and international level of the necessary and financially viable measures for the adaptation of public transport needed for people with reduced mobility, specific areas still need to be studied in greater detail. That is why the FOT has commissioned several studies that will provide the information required. These reports are mainly available only in German or in French.
