READ & UNDERSTAND

Reading detective

A town planning group wants a safe way for families to reach a community event. One option involves a short bus ride and a long walk. Another bus reaches the door but leaves earlier. People compare arrival times, cost and accessibility before recommending a plan. They make space for people who use wheelchairs or have small children.

What should the planners consider besides travel time? Access needs and costOnly the colour of the busNothing else
