The Swiss Disabilities Act calls for all railway stations and public-transportation access points to be barrier-free by the year 2024. What is the best way to ensure that travelers with limited mobility have appropriate access to public-transportation services? To answer this question, we examined the relevant railway infrastructure, railway vehicles and their interaction. We used our findings to identify the measures necessary for barrier-free access. The expertise we acquired enables us to support railway infrastructure operators to efficiently meet the legal requirements.
