Abstract

Disabled people make about 10% fewer bus trips than other people each year according to the National Travel Survey. It is not obvious why this is the case. There is some useful information in Wave 8 of the DfT’s National Travel Attitudes Survey (NTAS) which focussed on personal safety when travelling. It was conducted online and by telephone in 2023 with responses from 2,018 individuals aged 16+ living in England.
