Possible Use of Water Areas by Disabled People
Original language description
People with reduced mobility have specific needs regarding their access to areas within the landscape. This follows not only from the findings of a questionnaire survey, but also from the experience with designing barrier-free buildings and their surroundings, where for example in the Czech Republic, it is necessary to respect Decree no. 398/2009, on general technical requirements for barrier-free use of buildings. This chapter presents the basic parameters for designing roads in the countryside as well as recreational areas and access roads to water bodies, view points, fishing places or just water. Stable banks need to be selected for access to water bodies. The bank stability can be enhanced by means of biotechnical modifications. Examples from Slovakia and the Czech Republic show that pleasant places accessible for all can be created also in the vicinity of water bodies if a universal design is used in which persons with reduced mobility are considered.
