Studenterrapport Public Bus Transport on the Ring Road in Iceland Current Status of and Responsibility for the Accessibility for Wheelchair Users Harpa Cilia Ingólfsdóttir Education: Master i Universelt Design og Tilgængelighed University: Aalborg University, Copenhagen Supervisor: Camilla Ryhl Semester: M8: Masterprojekt Delivery date: 07.01.2016 Acknowledgements This report is a final product of a longer process. I want to use this opportunity to show my gratitude. I believe that we all have a purpose on this earth, and what we do has effects and consequences. I am not sure of where this education will lead me to, but I know that it has been of great value. I want to thank Aalborg University in Copenhagen for providing the Master in Universal Design and Accessibility program; also I want to thank all the teachers, lecturers and René for a great time and good education. Especially I want to thank my mentor Camilla Ryhl for everything, I knew my version of accessibility matters before I entered the program, thank you for introducing me to your world of Universal Design and equality for all humans.
