So I thought that GHA's T,V,W and X plate Solo's and T and V plate MPD's would not meet DDA without some modification to the wheelchair backrest and the wheelchair ramps. I believe also that Alexander Darts Y201KNB and VX51PZM are not compliant also which unless they have recently been modified should all in theory be removed from service if they are under 7.5 tonnes.

There are vehicles as old as 02 plate that aren't to DDA spec, usually down to not having a suitable wheelchair ramp. I think many vehicles will need some retrofitting to comply in readiness for next January.
