Dubai Metro -(Focus on Special Needs Passengers)

City Transport for Special Needs Passengers - An idea worth spreading. This 3D video on the Dubai Metro is annotated with notes on the ease of use for travelers with special needs. From ramps for wheel chairs, to easy access ticket counters and wide fare gates, Dubai Metro has been built, taking into account the needs of ALL travelers on the metro. There are elevators, Tactile Guidance paths, and Audible and visual announcement systems to cater to the needs of all people. The train coaches themselves have spaces for Wheelchairs. The metro platforms have direct access to many of the big malls directly. This encourages special needs passengers to use the metro and explore the city.
