Investigating the public transport system in Cape Town with reference to special needs passengersRibbonaar, Deidre January 2005 (has links)
Thesis (MTech (Town and Regional Planning))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2005 / Inadequacies of the current public transport system cause an inconvenience
for "normal able-bodied" passengers; however, it arguably isolates Special Needs
Passengers (SNPs) from employment opportunities, recreational and
educational opportunities.
This research study focuses on what one might term mobility-handicapped persons
who find it difficult to move around, or to hear and see. The term SNP or mobilityhandicapped
persons encompasses more than just disabled persons. It includes
customers laden with shopping bags, pregnant women, or someone with a broken
leg, inter alia. The public transport system should enable persons with disabilities to
experience the most optimal level of independence.
It is crucial to have an accessible public transport system, because this is the first
step in achieving independence for many SNP's. At present the system does not
even satisfy the needs of able-bodied persons. How then is it supposed to respond
to Special Needs Passengers?
The public transport system can be divided into 4 categories namely, Infrastructure,
Shared Road and Pedestrian Environment, Information and Vehicles. At present,
these components of the system do not function efficiently.
This research study was undertaken from three main perspectives in regard to the
City of Cape Town:
• The performance of the public transport system with reference to SNPs,
• The performance of the city in terms of it's urban qualities and SNPs, and
• The adequacy of the existing legal provisions and policy frameworks with
reference to SNPs.

Equal in theory : an assessment of anti-discrimination statutes as equality tools for people with disabilitiesPatch, Tom W. 11 1900 (has links)
In recent years, the enforcement of Canadian human rights statutes has been the subject of
much criticism. That criticism comes not only from organizations that are required to change
their practices to comply with the statutes, but from advocates who question the effectiveness
of human rights enforcement. Studies which attempt to address these criticisms generally
review the criticisms and then seek to modify the enforcement models to ameliorate the
problems which have generated the criticism. This thesis considers the problem from a more
theoretical perspective. With a focus on disability, this thesis considers whether Canadian
anti-discrimination statutes, which were created when the prevailing theory of equality was a
formal one, are capable of achieving substantive equality as it is now conceived.
Applying a disability rights perspective, substantive equality for people with disabilities
requires that a wide and complex variety of barriers be removed. These barriers may result
from intended or unintended discrimination. They may be physical or attitudinal. They may
be isolated, individual acts or they may reflect widespread societal norms. To eliminate such
an array of barriers, anti-discrimination statutes must include a range of powers and
procedures: they must incorporate provisions that protect people with disabilities from such
barriers; they must provide mechanisms to identify the barriers; there must be mechanisms to
determine whether the barriers contravene the protected right; and the statutes must provide
effective remedies.
This thesis concludes that contemporary human rights enforcement models are capable of
effectively addressing many individual barriers to equality for people with disabilities.
However, under a complaint-based model, human rights agencies cannot effectively address
barriers that result from the operation of widespread norms. Canadian human rights agencies
are therefore limited in their ability to achieve the societal transformation that is necessary to
achieve substantive equality for people with disabilities. For such equality to be realized,
anti-discrimination statutes must be seen as just one facet of a much broader approach. / Law, Peter A. Allard School of / Graduate
