Downtown Phoenix Ambassadors should have a large fleet of electric courtesy cars in order to take people to their destinations, especially when there are large conventions and special events.

by Sara S2 How would this solution impact the influx of pedicabs happening downtown?

by Jennifer L8 Thanks Sean M. Didn't see image 2. This is closer to safe but still needs some tweaking.

by Ardyce E I don't see Wheelchair access or Kneeling access for seniors and disabled people who are likely to want this assistance. I've heard from disability activists that there is a lack of access around convention centers. So I hope that the photo is an example.

by Sean M8 See image #2: This kind of access could be used on the same type of electric shuttle.

by Jennifer L8 Thank you Ardyce! As a full-time wheelchair user, I am left stranded at places where shuttles of this type are the sole offering. We need to consider the needs of the entire community including parents with strollers and those individuals with mobility impairments.
