A ramp assembly comprises a support defining each of a vertical axis and a horizontal axis, a ramp being coupled to the support and being configured to support an passenger thereon. An optional actuator mechanism may be coupled to at least one of the support, the ramp, a power source and a controller, the actuator mechanism configured, in a response to a control signal from the controller or in a response to a manual force, to rotate the ramp about the vertical axis between a stowed position and a deployed position or rotate the ramp about the horizontal axis between the deployed position and a ground engaging position. The actuator may comprise a motor with a gearbox and two gears to rotate the ramp about the vertical axis. The actuator may comprise a linear actuator to rotate the ramp about the horizontal axis.
