Bus ramps

On 12 August when wheeling onto the 250 bus the ramp retracted leaving me stuck with the back wheels of my wheelchair hanging off the edge. I had to grab the rail to hold on and as my muscles are weak (the reason I am in a wheelchair) this was difficult and I badly strained all the muscles in my arm and back.

On the way home from work, the ramp on the bus did not work so I could not get onto the bus and had to wait half an hour for the next bus in the freezing cold.

Not a good day for public transport!
