All buses in Graz are low-floor buses and are therefore barrier-free. With the trams, care is taken to ensure that, according to the regular timetable, every second tram is a low-floor tram.
There is a tactile guidance system at almost all tram stops. The tram stops in such a way that you can board directly at the driver's door. Most stops have nub panels that people who need help can stand on. In the vehicles, the next stop is announced acoustically and via the screen display.
