Question 1: What kind of terrain and how much space, manuevering room, and time does a wheelchair user or other person with a disability need in order to board and disembark from a transit vehicle at a bus stop or other location and to manever and to ride on board the transit vehicle itself?

- how wheelchairs are maneuvered, and

- the challenges faced by wheelchair users in the operation of their wheelchairs.
