You could put a ramp at the side of the cattle grid. Hinge it along
the
edge transverse to the road and spring or counterweight it so it's
default position is lifted vertical. Wheelchair attendant simply
folds
the ramp down to horizontal, wheels front end of w/chair onto ramp,
weight keeps ramp horizontal until wheelchair rolls off the other
end,
when the ramp self-returns to vertical.


Are you dumb or just stupid ?!..

What if there is no 'wheel chair attendant', how will any wheel chair
attendant both hold the 'flap' down and push the said wheel chair onto
it, are you aware that some wheel chairs have anti tip steadies
sticking out the back which are likely to get side swiped by any
returning flap ?
