Chennai improves public space accessibility for disabilities

Chennai Corporation plans to improve access for persons with disabilities in public spaces. They will select a construction agency to build ramps and enhance facilities in various locations, addressing current accessibility issues. Many public areas, including bus stops and parks, lack proper access for individuals with disabilities. The Corporation aims to study these civic issues to create a more inclusive environment. Advisors emphasize the need for better restroom access and safer flooring in buildings. They recommend adopting universal design principles to ensure long-term accessibility and prevent future repair needs.
