Sites main weaknesses are table layout and using image map for main menu. It is also hard to find and access the main features: Trip planner and bus schedules, especially from a web-enabled phone. Even then these forms do not have accessible markup that would allow people to see their schedules in a rush.

In this section I offer to evaluate your website's accessibility on a scale from 0 to 18 absolutely free.

This test is objective and is something that program can't quite do right. Scale is based on W3C accessibility guidelines and on this article by Roger Johansson.
