Transportation is an extremely difficult issue for physically disabled people. Existing transportation facilities available to physically disabled persons are not sufficient. In order to have barrier free transportation system, it is required to have a system which serves physically disabled people too. The motive of the project is to provide a solution to the boarding constraints of physically disabled while utilizing the public transportation facilities. This mechanism facilitates the transportation of people with disabilities. The wheelchair lift platform extends out with the help of a motor. The platform descends down to ground level enabling person to board in and with pneumatic action the wheel chair is lifted to level of bus platform. Through reverse action the platform is made to occupy the initial stage and with help of motor the entire platform is drawn back to casing. The pneumatic system offers a stable lift but with low load carrying capacity.
