A. Metro Buses can accommodate all types of wheelchairs. This includes three-wheel scooter-chairs, power chairs and small four-wheel chairs. General requirements for bus passengers in wheelchairs are that the chair must fit on the lift and it must be able to maneuver to the wheelchair securement area. Metro Buses are equipped with lifts or ramps that can accommodate mobility devices up to 30 inches wide and 48 inches long. The weight capacity of the lifts or ramps is 600 pounds.
