A bus driver who lost her job due to her height has been given her job back after a successful appeal, including a petition with over 25,000 signatures.
Tracey Scholes, who is 5ft tall (1.52m), had been a bus driver for 34 years when a bus redesign left her unable to undertake her driving duties safely.
The bus operator’s changes including moving the buses’ wing mirrors, meant she could no longer “reach the pedals to drive” without a blind spot appearing.
