Hey,

Thanks Manduca; sorry I missed the question about the shuttle in the Orga meeting. 

As Manduca says, we are hoping to have a wheelchair accessible shuttle. 

Perhaps you'd like to discuss with me the best way of coordinating that with Team:Accessibility, if there are any special requirements beyond making a note on the Wiki and having information on the signs? 

The on-site bits are Manduca's domain :) 

Best,

Hugh
