Twin strollers "Tatari Bus" view public announcement Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Tourism Council April 6 5:46
Regarding twin strollers that some bus companies have said that they can not ride unless they collapse, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism council has published a view that is based on being able to ride without difficulty under certain conditions .
Twin strollers are larger than ordinary strollers, and some businesses, such as Tokyo Metropolitan buses, have requested that they be folded when boarding, as they block passages.
On the other hand, parents of twins said, "It is difficult to carry two children with luggage and a folded stroller," or "I was told to fold even if I was thin, and I gave up riding And others asked for a review.
In response to these voices, as a result of discussions by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism council made by representatives of public transport and child care support groups, we have published our opinion based on being able to ride without folding under certain conditions .
Specifically, the driver assists the driver in getting on and off at the request of the user, and the user fixes the stroller in two places with the belt installed on the bus, and removes hands from the handle of the stroller during traveling. I want something not.
The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has decided to disseminate its views to businesses across the country and to conduct a campaign to promote understanding of strollers.
“I'm glad I felt like I was discriminated against without having the right to take a bus,” says Haruri Akizawa, who raised a two-year-old twin and wanted to ride a stroller without folding it. I can't go there, but eventually I will be able to take a bus to various parks and large commercial facilities.I hope that children will see the bus and feel like a vehicle that will take you to a fun place "
