The new 35- and 40-foot-long buses will offer easier entry and exit to both pedestrian and wheelchair passengers compared to today's fleet and they will be air-conditioned, Gibbons said. The 35-footers hold 27 seated and two wheelchair passengers, the 40-footers 37 seated plus two in wheelchairs. "They also will offer a much more comfortable ride* than.does the present fleet, Gibbons said. But the low-floor design will have "the biggest impact" on passengers, she stated. "With our present buses, that first step is a'doozie," Gibbons said. "But the new buses will be level with the curb, so passen gers don't have to step up that high." Wheelchair users will find the buses equipped with motorized ramps instead of the "very tem peramental" hydraulic lifts which have plagued SMART and other.bus companies across the country, according to Gibbons.
