N2  - Gender inequalities are permeated into every structure of society, with public transport infrastructure as no exception. This thesis explores women?s perceptions of safety and accessibility while utilising the bus in Groningen. The purpose is to apply an intersectional feminist lens, investigating how certain traits like gender, race, ethnicity, among others, influence women?s experiences on the bus. Qualitative primary data collection was employed, including in-person interviews and online qualitative surveys. Findings reveal that despite the bus being generally perceived as safe and accessible, varying accounts among women prove the significant influence of these intersecting characteristics. The study emphasizes the importance of considering social aspects of infrastructure to address gendered disparities effectively. Implications contribute to a deeper understanding of how intersectionality shapes women?s experiences in public transport, as well as their mobility, particularly 
within the Dutch urban context. For future recommendations, the topic could also incorporate a quantitative dimension, recognising the merits of a mixed-methods approach. Additionally, a follow-up study may elaborate further on key findings, involve new groups, and expand the geographical scope beyond Groningen.
