Lilly’s campaign for greater accessibility at Ivanhoe Station continues to gain momentum.

Her Orientation and Mobility instructor, Marnie from Confident Steps, has recently extended an invitation to several politicians to travel on public transport blindfolded. This practical experience aims to highlight the challenges faced by people with low vision or blindness when using inaccessible stations.

The invitation underscores the urgent need for tactile ground surface indicators (TGSI) at Ivanhoe Station, a simple yet vital improvement that would make the station safer and more accessible. With over 10,000 signatures on the petition and ongoing efforts to bring this issue to light, the hope is that decision-makers will take meaningful steps toward action.

Stay tuned for updates as we continue to advocate for change.
