Proposal for a regulation
Recital 10 a (new)
(10 a) As signatories to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), the European Union and all Member States are legally obliged to ensure that persons with disabilities have access, on an equal basis with others, to transport and the built environment (Article 9). Acknowledging that millions of persons with disabilities experience barriers to use transport, the European Commission has included the revision of the TEN-T Guidelines in its list of actions under aim 2. “Accessibility – an enabler of rights, autonomy and equality” of the Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2021-2030. Finally, with its Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy, the EU has committed to “making mobility fair and just for all” (Flagship 9), including by improving accessibility for passengers with disabilities. It notes that transport proposals under the Strategy must be compliant with the Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2021-2030.
