Lack of Accessible Restrooms on Trains
Target Audience: Wheelchair users
The feel of the problem: Humiliated, uncomfortable, and frustrated. Most train restrooms are too narrow and not equipped with accessible features like grab bars, adequate space for wheelchairs, or adjustable fixtures.
When: Throughout long journeys, where passengers may require restroom facilities but cannot access them; particularly a problem on long-distance trains.
Implication: Individuals avoid train travel altogether or are forced to endure long journeys without using the restroom, which can lead to serious discomfort, health issues, and stress. This severely limits travel options for those with disabilities.
