The Olympics celebrate the power of collaboration and shared success. ✔️ Overcoming Obstacles: Olympic athletes are testaments to human resilience. They dedicate years to overcoming challenges, injuries, and setbacks, inspiring us with their unwavering determination.

Did you know? 🏅 Our ramps are a part of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris! Let's start from the beginning... From July 26th, Paris will shine on the global stage as it hosts the Olympic and Paralympic Games. With around 15 million visitors expected, including many individuals with disabilities, ensuring seamless public transportation is more crucial than ever. 🚌 Accessibility is particularly vital for the Paralympic Games. Electric ramps on buses make it easier for people with mobility impairments to board and alight. However, these ramps must work perfectly, especially with the increased number of passengers. That's why we at HÜBNER are delighted to be working with RATPgroup, the Paris public transport company. 🚏 HÜBNER will manage the spare parts business for Paris buses, ensuring efficient service and repairs through fast delivery of spare parts. We are proud to contribute to enhanced accessibility for the Olympic and Paralympic Games and look forward to an exciting sports event. #Olympics2024 #Paralympics2024 #Mobility #Inclusion #Paris2024 #PublicTransport #Accessibility Paris 2024 - Comité d'organisation des Jeux Olympiques et Paralympiques de 2024
