The Churchill Fellows Association of QLD Churchill Fellowship to identify and assess best universal design approaches to improve public transport in Australia

To explore, experience, utilise and analyse the universal design approaches used by the best public transportation systems worldwide. This will enable Australia to move away from a limited accessible design approach based on minimum standards compliance to embrace a universal design approach that doesn’t just benefit a select group of people (Vision impaired individuals and wheelchair users). The obtained knowledge will serve as the foundation for developing and implementing universal design approaches to public transport conveyances and infrastructure around Australia. The long-term objective is to make public transportation systems around Australia work for all people, with and without any disabilities.
