Child passenger in pram or stroller

On a low-floor bus with wheelchair access and priority spaces, a child may stay in a pram or stroller while travelling,provided the pram or stroller is placed in the wheelchair priority area of the bus and the area is not required by a person in a wheelchair.

For optimum safety, it is recommended that the stroller or pram is positioned facing the rear of the bus braced against the back of the seat or partition in front of the wheelchair space and the brakes (if any) applied. The parent of carer must also remain with the child in the pram. In this situation, the decision to leave the child in the pram is a matter for the parent or carer.

On other buses without a low floor, a child may not stay in the pram or stroller while entering or travelling on the bus.The pram or stroller should be folded and stowed clear of the aisle or doorways and the child carried by the parent or carer.
