Hi Folks,
Below is a description of a design competition related to transportation and accessibility.
In a mobile, global culture, full social participation hinges on accessibility of transportation systems at both the community and intercity scale. Accessible public transportation in the community allows individuals with disabilities to have independent access to works sites, educational programs, health facilities, and social and recreational activities. The “Next Generation Accessible Bus” Design Competition is looking to find innovative design solutions that will improve the future of public transportation.
The winner will be announced on May 13, 2011, and will receive an award, one free Festival of International Conferences on Caregiving, Disability, Aging and Technology registration, one free night stay at the conference hotel, and $500.
