BARRIER FREE PUBLIC SPACES
Continuing the lecture on 'attention to detail': When a bus arrives at a stop, a recorded voice speakes out the bus number for the blind to hear. The first step is quite low for general ease. The front half of the bus is quite open, with seat aligned along the wall, reserved for people with special needs. All along the journey, the names of the next upcoming stop is displayed within the bus. Major stops are announced as well.
The side walks do not end with a step high drop, but merge into it. There is a tactile tile to mark the end of the walk.
Inside building there would be ramp entry without fail and lifts have brail.
But still there is no bulb in the room :-)
