Blind And Partially Sighted Passengers And Bus Drivers Swap Roles

RNIB Scotland and First Glasgow teamed up for an event that saw visually impaired passengers and bus drivers swap experiences at a major Glasgow depot.

RNIB Connect Radio’s Allan Russell spoke to Robert Burns, from First, and Matthew Clarke, a blind commuter, to find out how the event will improve independent travel and provide further awareness training for drivers.
