Same deadline as normal service vehicles - as they operate as registered services, they have to be DDA-compliant by 1st January 2017. Newcastle is currently the only Stagecoach-operated franchise that still uses high floor vehicles (and has always used the oldest vehicles of the 3 owned franchise anyway).
