De Lijn - Accessible stops

Country/region: Belgium - Flanders

Year: 2023

On the website of De Lijn you can find information about the accessibility of bus stops. Symbols (also in the app) show the accessibility information of the stops. If the stop is accessible, then accessibility symbols are present behind the stop name. If there’s no symbol, the stop is not accessible. Symbols are possible for different restrictions:

  • Mobile disability
  • Mobile disability, with the help of your supervisor
  • Visual impairment

You can also find 6 indications of an accessible stop.

More information about design principles and guidelines for the construction of accessible stops, is available in the brochures ‘accessible stops’ and the ‘Bus stop guide’.
