ATTITUDES OF TRANSIT PERSONNEL AND PUBLIC TRANSIT CONSUMERS TOWARDS PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION ACCESSIBILITY

This research investigated the attitudes held by transit personnel and public transit consumers toward accessible public transit. The transit sample was obtained by a simple random sample of the personnel of six transit providers located in the eastern and western portions of the United States. The data analysis examined: the attitudes of transit personnel toward people with disabilities; the attitudes of transit personnel towards accessible service delivery; the attitudes of public transit consumers toward accessible service delivery; and, how some of the service delivery concerns of the transit personnel compare to those of public transit consumers.
