Ombudsman launches new video in Auslan
New Auslan video aims to make PTO process easy to use
As part of the Public Transport Ombudsman Awareness Strategy for 2020 we are making it easier for people to contact us, including people with accessibility needs.
Accessibility to public transport is not just about lodging a complaint, but also about making our public transport complaint process easy to understand and to use.
This includes our new Auslan video we have launched today, providing information about what we do and how you can access our service.
This new spoken word and Auslan video explains the Public Transport Ombudsman services, how you can contact us and how we may be able to address your public transport issue.

We want to hear from people from all abilities, so we can help to make the public transport system in Victoria better for everyone.
The film was shot at various locations around Melbourne and Victoria on public transport with the assistance of Auslan interpreters. Auslan is the Australian sign language for people who are Deaf.
You can view the video on our website, or on YouTube.
