Tactile Modifications at the Platforms with Rail – Bus Transfer Hubs
Original language description
The paper deals with tactile walking surface indicators (TWSI) within integrated public transport hubs, namely a built in platform with two edges connecting railway and bus. Platforms, especially those that are less than 7 meters wide must be designed to ensure safe passage. With the growing population ageing demographic curve, it is vital to provide a free passage along the TWSIs during the design stages, their implementation, and maintenance of the building. The most significant factor preventing safe passage is the unobstructed width in the thoroughfares (e.g. framework constructions of roofing systems, information and orientation systems, station furniture, and other equipment). The movement and orientation of people with limited mobility in such cramped conditions are restricted. Such conditions can cause life-threatening situations for visually impaired people. That is why this paper focuses on features of such obstacles, which designers, investors, and property managers must take into consideration. The article publishes partial measurements of unobstructed width needed by visually impaired people at rail - bus platforms..
