Day 6

On this bright Saturday, I took a bus to the Scarborough Town Centre Shopping Mall. I found that the TTC’s bus station facilities in Scarborough Town Centre are very convenient for people with disabilities. Not only are there automatic doors for people with disabilities, but also elevators for people to go up and down, as well as ticketing systems with voice navigation. I can deeply understand that the decoration of this station is perfect considering the design of the accessible environment.

Instead, the gates in the opposite direction of the station entrance are leading to the coach station and GoBus station. This is a door that must be pulled by hand to open. Passing through this door is a very steep stair. Such a design often brings great operational difficulties to people with mobility impairments who come by public transport.
