metrolink bans mobility scooters

according to the manchester evening news,motability scooters are too big for the new trams,therefore they are banning them from the network-including the older trams,i told my mother to leave hers at home today and had to use the push wheelchair,when on the tram a fella was on his scooter and said he intended to continue using it on metrolink..as its his only way of getting about,after 4 hours of pushing a wheelchair today,i can assure you i will be advising my mother to use hers again in future,of course its not advisable using one in rush hour,but surely disabled people have a right to travel?not everyone has someone to push them,an email to metrolink right away,
