Transport Access for All was published in 2006 as the Transport Sectoral Plan for improving the accessibility of public transport in Ireland. It sets out a series of policy objectives and targets for accessible transport across all modes of transport - measures to make trains, buses, taxi and hackney services, as well as air and marine transport, accessible to people with disabilities.

The Department of Transport has now begun a Review of Transport Access for All. The Review is being undertaken in line with a commitment in the present Plan.

People with disabilities are being invited to respond to a brief survey about their current experience of public transport. For more information click on the link below.
