Dublin teenager’s inspiring public transport challenge airs on RTE Nationwide

A young man’s challenge to travel across all 32 counties on public transport will air on RTE’s Nationwide tonight in an exciting programme.

James Casserly uses a wheelchair and began a blog documenting his experiences on public transport this April. The 17-year-old also uploaded videos of his journeys and the accessibility of different transport providers while on board.

The teenager’s experience will feature on tonight’s Nationwide episode and reveal what different counties across Ireland lack - but also get right- in terms of inclusivity and overall access. His parents have supported him throughout the process and are as hopeful as James that it will inspire change.
