Egyptian Railways Focuses on Services for Older Passengers and People with Disabilities

The Egyptian National Railways Authority is working to improve services for older passengers and people with disabilities, with a focus on making rail travel better suited to their needs.

The authority places these efforts within its responsibility to care for both groups and strengthen their rights as users of the railway network.

Its stated approach puts service suitability at the centre of that commitment, recognising that older passengers and people with disabilities have needs that should be reflected in the services they receive.
