A single design decision can impact a premise's accessibility when technical considerations for a person with a disability are essential. Suppose a ramp or stairway into a building has a circulation space (landing or approach) that protrudes into a path of travel.
In that case, the handrails may be too short, the TGSIs may be insufficiently applied, or security bollards positioned without ample warning for a person with a disability.
This video journal details a design of an entrance ramp, a bollard and an application of TGSIs. The new government facility (GOVHUB) has created unnecessary obstacles and hinders the accessibility of a person with a disability.
