Last year, we were fortunate enough to connect with three Canadians who count on their local community shuttle.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They shared with us what their community shuttle meant to them and how they came to begin using it. Their shared experiences were insightful and gave us a further appreciation of how important this service is.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We were thrilled to learn that they were all happy to connect with us again this year to help us understand what features of the community shuttles they travel in are most important to them and why.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fern from Manitoba<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fern, who lives in a small community in Manitoba has been using the Community Shuttle since 2019. She gave up driving as she was no longer comfortable behind the wheel. The Community Shuttle allows her to give up driving without relying on someone to drive her where she needs to go. Fern was happy to sit down with us again to help us understand what vehicle features were important to her<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P-Series-ultimate-conversion-wheelchair-turning-space.jpg\" alt=\"P Series ultimate conversion wheelchair turning space\" class=\"wp-image-116957\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P-Series-ultimate-conversion-wheelchair-turning-space.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P-Series-ultimate-conversion-wheelchair-turning-space-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What kind of vehicles have you travelled in with your local accessible Community Shuttle service?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There have been two different vehicles. One was like a very small bus, but they aren\u2019t using that one anymore. Now they have larger van.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which of the three accessible vehicles do you enjoy riding in the most and why?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The larger van because it\u2019s easy for me to get in and out of. It has a ramp that I can walk up. The older bus had steep steps, which made it difficult for older people to get in and out of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What else do you like about the large wheelchair van?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It looks like a proper shuttle \u2013 something that you would think of to pick you up at the airport when you are on vacation. It feels like a vehicle that you want to be in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">That&#8217;s an interesting observation &#8211; why is it important to you that the van looks like a proper shuttle?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s hard to explain. The wheelchair bus was old and a bit of an eye sore and it reminded me of a school bus. Those are ok for kids, but at my age, I prefer something a little classier. I guess it\u2019s more dignified and doesn\u2019t feel like you are travelling in a special vehicle for the elderly. It\u2019s nice.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So would you say dignified travel is important to you?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, it is. Don\u2019t get me wrong \u2013 if the bus was the only option, I would still take it, but the larger van is a nicer way to travel.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are there any other features of the van that you appreciate?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes! It has a great heating system, which is important here in the Manitoba winter. The drivers always keep it nice and warm. Unfortunately, the older bus never was warm enough for my liking. It could be because it was getting on in years, so I used to bring a blanket with me when we rode into the city.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In a few words, could you describe the features of a Community Shuttle that are most important to you?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It should be a vehicle that looks like something that you want to drive in. It needs to be easy to get in and out of and be nice and warm during the winter months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dale from Alberta<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our next stop was to meet with Dale, who lives in rural Alberta. Due to a visual impairment, Dale has been relying on the Community Shuttle for more than 20 years.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P-Series-ultimate-conversion-Ram-Promaster.jpg\" alt=\"S\u00e9rie P conversion ultime Ram Promaster\" class=\"wp-image-116955 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P-Series-ultimate-conversion-Ram-Promaster.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P-Series-ultimate-conversion-Ram-Promaster-400x267.jpg 400w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/427;\" data-original-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What kind of vehicles have you travelled in with your local accessible Community Shuttle service?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There have been a few over the years, mainly buses and small vans, depending on the number of passengers on a particular trip. Right now, the van that takes me to work and back is a Ford Transit.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which of the three accessible vehicles do you enjoy riding in the most and why?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The small vans. The accessible minivans are nice because you can talk to the driver and the other passengers, being that they\u2019re smaller and quiet.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You mentioned the wheelchair accessible minivans are quiet &#8211; are the other vehicles noisier?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Ford Transit wheelchair van is quiet, but it\u2019s larger so it\u2019s not as easy to chat with the driver or fellow passengers, like you can in a minivan. I guess this is expected in a larger vehicle.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What else do you like about the minivan?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s inconspicuous. It looks like any other minivan on the road, and you can\u2019t tell that you are in a specialized vehicle.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is it important to you that your ride isn&#8217;t noticeably a specialized van?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, not exactly, but it\u2019s nice to travel the same way everyone else does. I don\u2019t like to be seen receiving special treatment.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are there any other features of the wheelchair accessible minivan that you appreciate?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, it\u2019s comfortable. The seats are great, there is enough headroom, and the windows can open to get fresh air. It\u2019s a nice way to get from point A to point B. The van makes it easy for me to get to my seat because I step into the van and there is a seat to sit on. In the larger vehicles, I sometimes need help to find a seat due to my vision, so it\u2019s nice to be able to do that independently. I also like that I have the option to sit in the front seat. It\u2019s nice to chat with the drivers to pass the time. There is no passenger seat in the front when you\u2019re riding the bus.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In a few words, could you describe the features of a Community Shuttle that are most important to you?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most important thing to me is that it\u2019s comfortable and that I can use it without needing help to get to my seat. I like the dignity it gives me.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jacquie from Southern Ontario<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next, we met with Jacquie from Southern Ontario. Jacquie has been using her local Community Shuttle for nine years because of an aggressive form of MS. She has been using a wheelchair since 2014.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/P4-Rear-Entry-6-rsz1.jpg\" alt=\"fauteuil roulant s\u00e9curis\u00e9 dans la camionnette P4 movemobility \u00e0 entr\u00e9e arri\u00e8re\" class=\"wp-image-100943 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/P4-Rear-Entry-6-rsz1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/P4-Rear-Entry-6-rsz1-400x267.jpg 400w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/427;\" data-original-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Int\u00e9rieur spacieux pour les fauteuils roulants et les passagers ambulatoires<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What kind of vehicles have you travelled in with your local accessible Community Shuttle service?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I first started using the shuttle, it was a bus with a wheelchair lift on the side near the back. Now they have a nice van. It\u2019s a little smaller, but I like it much better than the big bus.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why do you like the shuttle van more than the bus?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mostly because instead of a wheelchair lift, there is a ramp at the side. It makes getting on the shuttle much quicker, which is great when it\u2019s hot or very cold.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You mentioned the van is quicker to get in and out of. Why did it take longer for you to get on the bus?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was the wheelchair lift. We had to wait for the driver to lower it, then get me on it, then for it to go up. Then the driver had to push me into the van. It only took a minute or two, but it always seemed like a long time in the cold.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What else do you like about the van?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I can see out the windows! In the bus, the fogged up in the winter or when it was humid. It made the ride seem longer when you can\u2019t look out the window. Also, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I used to feel bad for other passengers sitting in the van waiting for me to get on in the winter. The doors where the lift is had to be wide open, losing all the heat while waiting for me to get on. It took forever to warm up again, and I didn\u2019t like that.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is the heating and cooling not an issue on the new van?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s less of an issue, for sure. The door isn\u2019t as big, and I am in the van so fast that it doesn\u2019t have time to get that cold. I think the other passengers appreciate it too because everyone is more comfortable no matter what time of year it is.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are there any other features of the Community Shuttle that are important to you?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, there are. A smooth ride is important to me because the bus often had a bumpy ride. When you use a wheelchair, you feel each bump much more than if you are in a seat, so it can be uncomfortable. The new van is much better \u2013 I barely feel any bumps in the road!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Passenger feedback<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We appreciated Fern, Dale and Jacquie taking the time to share what they do and don\u2019t appreciate about their local Community Shuttle vehicles. Their feedback is helpful in considering what accessible vehicle features are important to passengers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your community is looking for ways to implement a community shuttle, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movemobility.ca\/fr\/contact\/\">talk to a mobility expert today.<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thousands of Canadians who live in rural or remote communities rely on a Community Shuttle to get where they need to go.
