The Railway Authority has announced that it will introduce multiple measures to make railway stations more accessible to people with disabilities.


As part of these new measures, railway stations will house dedicated counters that will make it easier for people with disabilities to buy their tickets. Inside the trains, seats will be allocated to people with disabilities, and a golf cart service will transport them in and out of the station. Wheelchairs will be made available at Cairo Station and a number of high-density central stations, with ramps to be established at the stations’ entrances and exits.
