    I have used the trams about a dozen times now and think they're great. They have dedicated wheelchair spaces. There's a wheelchair icon on the ground at stops, where the doors giving direct access to the wheelchair spaces. You roll on and off, you don't need a ramp. The trams are clean and tidy. There's a conductor who checks passengers tickets and also ensure you get on and off ok.

    The staff - conductor checks to make sure you get on and off ok. There's a button you press to let the driver know that you want to get off, and he gives you extra time.
