The Accessible Transport Strategy Action Plan 2007-2009

The Department for Regional Development published the Accessible Transport Strategy (ATS) in 2005.  

The ATS has the vision: "To have an accessible transport system that enables older people and people with disabilities to participate more fully in society, enjoy greater independence and experience a better quality of life."

The ATS included a commitment to produce two-year Action Plans to implement the strategy. Following the completion of consultation the Department has now published the Action Plan for the period 2007–2009. This document is available below in word and PDF format and also in an easyread version.

Travel Safe - a guide about community safety for people with learning disabilities.

One of the things the ATS said we can do is help people with learning disabilities travel more by themselves.

We have now published a guide for people with learning disabilities.

We found out everything we could about travelling safely. We read other guides, we looked things up on the internet, we talked to the police and to road safety officers. We talked to lots of people with learning disabilities about what they felt people needed to know. When we had done all that, we put all the information together in this book. To help make this book easy to understand, we took pictures of the things you will see when you are travelling in Northern Ireland.

We hope that this book helps you to get out and about and travel safe.

Because of all the pictures, we have split the document into sections to make it easier to download.
