Apparently, due to DDA limits on how high a seat can be from the floor in inches, if thicker padding was added to the Temsa seats, it would go over the height limit and would not be DDA.Aren't the height limitations only so strict for priority seating, which is a small proportion of seats on the bus?
Structural changes are therefore required and that is why they have not done them yet.
If the limits are tight on all seats, then I can think of many seats on Arriva's MPDs as well as GNE's Omnidekkas and Citaros which are way too high. There's some seats on all of those where my feet barely touch the ground.
