What are the public facilities designed for the disabled?
New residential areas in Shenzhen have barrier-free facilities and ramps that are convenient for strollers or wheelchairs. \ r \ n \ r \ The first phase of Shenzhen Metro has a special increase of 654.38 billion yuan, which is equipped with perfect barrier-free facilities to facilitate the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled to travel. The picture shows engineers checking the construction of blind roads. \ r \ n \ r \ nCore Tip \ r \ n \ r \ nBuilding barrier-free facilities is an important measure to provide convenience for the disabled, the elderly, patients, women and children, and it is an important part of modern urban construction and an important symbol of social progress. \ r \ n \ r \ Shenzhen is one of the earliest cities in China to carry out barrier-free construction. As early as 1985, the municipal government issued a document requesting the establishment of barrier-free facilities in public places, thus starting the barrier-free environment construction in Shenzhen. On June 5438+ 10, 2006, Shenzhen was awarded the title of "Advanced City for Barrier-free Construction in the Tenth Five-Year Plan" by the Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the China Disabled Persons' Federation and the Office of the National Working Committee on Ageing, and it was the first batch of advanced cities for barrier-free construction in China. \ r \ n \ r \ nIn recent years, barrier-free construction in the whole city has expanded to public construction, urban roads, transportation, communities, families, information consultation and other fields. All new roads in the city are paved with blind roads and wheelchair ramps, barrier-free bus lines are opened, and 25 barrier-free buses are put into operation. City and district libraries have established reading rooms for the blind, launched GPS positioning and navigation services and computer software for the blind, and distributed love mobile phone information cards to 8 18 hearing and speech disabled people in the city, which has transformed the barrier-free environment for families with severe disabilities and provided a good barrier-free environment for vulnerable groups such as the disabled to participate in social life. \ r \ n \ r \ This year, the Regulations of Shenzhen Municipality on the Administration of Barrier-free Construction has been included in the legislative plan of the National People's Congress and is expected to be promulgated this year. Shenzhen also put forward the goal of building a barrier-free city in the Eleventh Five-Year Plan, and the barrier-free construction of the city will be more and more perfect. \ r \ n \ r \ nThe government actively promotes the construction of barrier-free environment \ r \ n \ r \ nThe construction of barrier-free facilities is a symbol of urban civilization and progress, a public welfare facility that facilitates all citizens to participate in social activities, and it is the obligation and responsibility of the government. \ r \ n \ r \ The Shenzhen Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have been actively promoting barrier-free environment construction, taking barrier-free construction as a "popular project" and a "caring project", and taking barrier-free construction as an important part of urban construction, taking effective measures and earnestly implementing it. \ r \ n \ r \ nAs early as July 1985, the municipal government issued the Notice on Setting Facilities for the Disabled in Public Places, requiring major roads, hotels, theaters, hospitals, post offices, banks, schools, railway stations, passenger stations, libraries, museums, gymnasiums, parks and tourist areas. Some special facilities for the disabled should be considered, such as low-level counters in shops, low-level public telephones and parking spaces for the disabled. . \ r \ n \ r \ During the Tenth Five-Year Plan period, our city put forward higher requirements for barrier-free construction: The Tenth Five-Year Plan for the Development of Disabled Persons in Shenzhen clearly stated: "Actively promote barrier-free environment construction in accordance with the standards of building an international garden city and the requirements of taking the lead in basically realizing socialist modernization", and at the same time formulated the Tenth Five-Year Implementation Plan for Barrier-free Construction in Shenzhen. \ r \ n \ r \ nIn 2000, the Municipal Bureau of Planning and Land Resources issued the Notice on Further Strengthening Barrier-free Design in Urban Design and Architectural Design, stipulating that barrier-free facilities should be set up not only in public places, but also in various urban constructions. \ r \ n \ r \ n 2006 54 38+0 The Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the China Disabled Persons' Federation jointly promulgated the Code for Barrier-free Design of Urban Roads and Buildings. Based on reality, our city conscientiously implements the spirit of norms and strengthens the implementation of standards. Distribute the specification to all design, construction, supervision and management departments so that the staff engaged in barrier-free construction and management can be familiar with and master the specification. At the same time, all departments are required to implement the regulations in all aspects such as planning, design, construction, supervision and acceptance, and all projects and projects that do not meet the requirements of the design specifications will be refused approval, construction and acceptance. \ r \ n \ r \ The Measures of Shenzhen Municipality for Helping the Disabled issued by the municipal government in 2005 also clearly stipulates; When building, expanding or rebuilding urban roads, transportation facilities and public buildings, the barrier-free design and construction shall be carried out in strict accordance with the requirements of the national code for the design of urban roads and buildings convenient for the disabled, and the management and maintenance of barrier-free facilities shall be strengthened. \ r \ n \ r \ nIn order to further clarify the administrative management system and social supervision mechanism of barrier-free construction and management, and provide legal basis for barrier-free construction of urban roads and buildings, barrier-free public transport construction and barrier-free information exchange, our city began to formulate the Regulations on Barrier-free Environment Construction in Shenzhen in 2005, which has been included in the legislative plan of this year's Municipal People's Congress and will be promulgated and implemented this year. \ r \ n \ r \ The Municipal Planning Bureau has also formulated Shenzhen Urban and Architectural Design Standards and Guidelines, Shenzhen Urban Public Space System Planning, and Shenzhen Special Economic Zone Pedestrian System Planning to provide clear design guidance for disabled people's travel environment and ensure the implementation of barrier-free construction. \ r \ n \ r \ nIn June, Shenzhen was awarded the title of "Advanced City for Barrier-free Construction in the Tenth Five-Year Plan" by the Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the China Disabled Persons' Federation and the Office of the National Working Committee on Ageing. Shenzhen is the only city in Guangdong Province that has won this honor. On this basis, our city put forward the goal of building an advanced city with barrier-free construction in the 11th Five-Year Plan, set up a leading group for barrier-free construction in Shenzhen, headed by the deputy mayor in charge of the municipal government, and issued the Implementation Plan for Building a Barrier-free City in Shenzhen in the 11th Five-Year Plan, which clearly requires: \ r \ n \ r \ n- kerbside ramps should be set at sidewalk intersections and intersections of new and expanded urban roads; Reconstruction of curb ramps at intersections of urban main roads, secondary roads, branches and sidewalks; All newly-built main roads, urban main roads, commercial streets and other sidewalks in the city are equipped with blind roads, speeding up the construction of blind roads in suburban main roads and improving the coverage rate of blind roads in the city; Large parks, squares, business districts, sidewalks of major public buildings, railway stations, subway platforms, etc. There are warning blind roads. \r\n\r\n—— Newly built commercial office buildings, cultural venues, sports buildings, medical buildings, schools, welfare homes, garden buildings, outdoor public toilets and other public buildings shall be equipped with barrier-free facilities and set up barrier-free signs; The corresponding facilities of all kinds of public buildings that have been built should be transformed as barrier-free as possible; Newly-built residential areas shall build sidewalks, community parks, green squares and barrier-free facilities in public places according to regulations; As far as possible, the barrier-free facilities in the completed residential areas will be transformed. \r\n\r\n—— Urban subways, airports and railway stations are basically barrier-free, with barrier-free facilities such as barrier-free elevators, barrier-free toilets and barrier-free signs. Actively promote wheelchair spaces and low-floor bus barrier-free facilities on buses. \ r \ n \ r \ nPeople with mobility difficulties are getting more and more convenient to travel \ r \ n \ r \ nUncle Li is an old man with mobility difficulties in a wheelchair, and his son took him to Shenzhen to take care of him. Grandpa especially likes life in Shenzhen, because it is convenient to go out and he doesn't have to stay at home all day. Grandpa lives in Huangpu Yayuan in the central area. There is an elevator downstairs. There are wheelchair access and sidewalks in the community. Even if nobody takes care of him, grandpa can push the wheelchair to any corner of the community. It is also very convenient to leave the community. All intersections have stone ramps. You can go to the nearby Lianhuashan Park to play. There is a ramp at the top of the mountain, which is accessible to the Central Book City and the Concert Hall. I often go out for activities, and my uncle's mood is becoming more and more cheerful. \ r \ n \ r \ nMr。 Liu, a disabled person who lives in Futian District, recently participated in a movie-watching activity organized by the Volunteer Federation and went to the Pacific Cinema on the fourth floor of Donghai Shopping Plaza. After watching the movie, Mr. Liu often feels emotion. He said: "From the first floor to the fourth floor, we don't need to take a step. We can watch movies like normal people with the help of ramps or elevators. The cinema has toilets specially designed for the disabled, and the projection hall has seats reserved for wheelchairs for the disabled. Care for the disabled should actually be reflected in these details. " \ r \ n \ r \ nMs。 Zhang, a disabled person who lives in Chegong Temple, told the reporter: "Over the years, the government has done a lot of practical things for the disabled, created a barrier-free environment for us disabled people with limited mobility, made us go out more and more smoothly, and created conditions for our integration into society and self-reliance. Like where my family lives, there is a subway entrance nearby. This subway entrance has barrier-free access and a barrier-free elevator, which is convenient for disabled people to enter the station. I can take the subway to the main roads and commercial centers in Futian and Luohu. There is also a No.59 bus near my home. There is a barrier-free bus on this line, which is convenient for wheelchairs to get on and off. Very convenient. The government has also given us many discounts for the disabled. It is free to take the bus and subway, and it is also free to go to the park. " \ r \ n \ r \ Walking on the main road in Shenzhen, careful pedestrians will find a row of particularly striking yellow granite floor tiles on the sidewalk, which are carefully carved with dots and stripes. This is a blind road specially laid for the convenience of the blind. Blind people will have a very obvious sense of direction as long as they hit the ground with a blind stick. In recent years, blind roads, curb ramps and wheelchair ramps have been paved on all the newly built and rebuilt 130 km urban roads in the city; Newly built public buildings are basically equipped with barrier-free facilities. Public buildings such as airports, docks, subways, railway stations, bus stations, customs joint inspection buildings, shopping malls, libraries, grand theaters, concert halls, youth palaces, convention and exhibition centers, and civic centers have all set up relatively complete barrier-free facilities and barrier-free signs. More than 20 major municipal parks in the city, such as Lianhua Mountain and Bijiashan Mountain, have been built into barrier-free municipal parks, and there are more than 600 barrier-free public toilets in the city. All hotels have rooms and toilets that are convenient for the disabled. The tourist area is designed to ensure that disabled people can enjoy the main attractions, and it is also equipped with wheelchairs and other equipment. All new residential areas in the city have barrier-free facilities, and some old residential areas have also been barrier-free transformed. \ r \ n \ r \ nIn order to facilitate people with mobility difficulties to travel, our city has also opened barrier-free bus lines, and 25 barrier-free bus lines have been put into operation. The rear door of this low-floor barrier-free bus adopts stepless design. When the driver stops, the air cushion under the car can flexibly reduce the height between the car body and the ground according to the height of the platform, forming an unobstructed passage, so that the wheelchair of the disabled and the elderly with mobility difficulties can smoothly enter the bus from the road without assistance. There is also a wheelchair space that can be fixed with seat belts, as well as anti-collision rubber pads, emergency stop buttons and other related devices. \ r \ n \ r \ nIn the planning and design of Shenzhen Metro Phase I, the opinions of the Municipal Disabled Persons' Federation were adopted, and various barrier-free facilities, such as blind roads, wheelchair ramps, barrier-free public toilets, barrier-free vertical elevators, barrier-free lanes, electronic display screens, and signs for the disabled, were adopted. The new investment is 654.38 billion yuan. Each car is equipped with a language station announcement system and a graphic display system, and a wheelchair space is specially set up. \ r \ n \ r \ The reporter also learned that the transportation department of our city will also launch barrier-free taxi service in the near future to meet the travel needs of vulnerable groups in wheelchairs. \ r \ n \ r \ n nTake measures to create conditions for information accessibility. Lin is a blind man in Shenzhen. He likes to go to the downtown library to read books on weekends. Since its opening, Shenzhen Library has taken into account the needs of the disabled in Shenzhen. It not only sets up ramps for disabled people with mobility difficulties to enter and exit freely, but also sets up blind roads for the blind. It has also set up the first visually impaired reading room in domestic libraries. There are more than 300 kinds of Braille books and various video products in the reading room. Most of the books in the library are health books such as massage techniques and traditional Chinese medicine that blind friends like to see and hear. At present, libraries in Shenzhen and all districts have established reading rooms for the blind. In addition, the city library also purchased multifunctional video teaching AIDS, learning machines, Braille printers, Braille dot matrix displays and other equipment to meet the reading needs of the visually impaired disabled and the blind. In order to help disabled people learn better, Shenzhen Library and Shenzhen Information Accessibility Research Association also held free computer training courses. \ r \ n \ r \ nIn recent years, in order to make more visually impaired people enjoy information accessibility, the Municipal Disabled Persons' Federation has introduced a variety of high-tech assistive devices. Disabled people with low vision can enlarge the font on the book several times on the computer screen and read it with visual AIDS; Blind people can "listen to books" with their ears through the scanning function of multifunctional learning machines, and freely "swim" on the Internet through Braille printers and Braille dot matrix displays; Through computer screen reading software, blind people can surf the Internet and use mobile phones as freely as healthy people. \ r \ n \ r \ nIn this year's caring action in Shenzhen, 200 blind people in Shenzhen happily received free GPS positioning and navigation mobile phones issued by the Municipal Disabled Persons' Federation. With this mobile phone integrating positioning, navigation and communication, as long as the destination is input, the mobile phone can guide the walking route of the blind by voice, and at the same time prompt the buildings, shopping malls, hotels and public facilities on both sides of the road in real time during the walking process, so that the blind can know their position at any time, just like installing electronic "eyes" for the blind, which can help the blind get out of the house better. In the future, this care plan will also cover all the blind people with deep household registration over 18 years old in the city. It is understood that Shenzhen is the first city in China to provide free GPS positioning and navigation for the blind, and China is the second country to provide GPS positioning and navigation system for the blind after the United States, which shows the government's care for the disabled. \ r \ n \ r \ nIn addition, 8 18 hearing language disabled people in the city were given love mobile phone information cards, which promoted the establishment of the "Information Accessibility Research Association" for the disabled, and used various communication means such as electronic media to exchange information. For example, online sign language teaching was conducted, and laws and regulations were printed in Braille. The Braille booklet "Measures for Helping the Disabled in Shenzhen" was printed by the Municipal Service Station of Articles and Appliances for the Disabled, which provided reading convenience for the visually disabled. \ r \ n \ r \ nIn Shenzhen, turn on the TV and add subtitles to TV news, movies and TV series, so that people with hearing impairment can watch TV conveniently. At present, our city is preparing to launch sign language programs on TV stations to promote sign language among service workers such as commerce and tourism. In addition, electronic information screens will be established and improved in key public places such as subways, railway stations, hospitals and government office buildings. \ r \ n \ r \ nThe stone of other mountains \ r \ n \ r \ nCanada: The government subsidizes barrier-free transportation \ r \ n \ r \ nThe transportation department of the Canadian government adopts preferential policies to support the development of barrier-free transportation, such as contract management of barrier-free taxis and rehabilitation minibuses, and outsourcing them to private transportation companies that meet the specified requirements, so that they can serve the disabled and the elderly exclusively. With the support of the government's preferential policies, the number of barrier-free taxis in Quebec has increased from 50 five years ago to more than 300 at present, which greatly facilitates the travel of the disabled and the elderly. \ r \ n \ r \ nBeijing: Barrier-free taxis are on the road \ r \ n \ r \ nAs one of the measures to improve the Beijing Paralympic Games and barrier-free travel, Beijing introduced 70 three types of barrier-free taxis in the first batch. This kind of taxi is equipped with a switch in the co-pilot position. When the switch is lightly pressed, the co-pilot seat can slowly rotate to the right, and disabled people or elderly people with mobility difficulties can easily get on and off. \ r \ n \ r \ nRenovation of barrier-free bus stops in Lianyungang \ r \ n \ r \ nCombined with the actual situation of urban roads, the transportation department of Lianyungang decided to renovate 80 bus stops on the main urban roads such as Chaoyang Road, Yingzhou Road and Zhongshan Road in the first batch. The new barrier-free platform is designed with wheelchair-specific access to facilitate wheelchair access to the bus platform. In addition, the bus stop has set up blind roads and braille stop signs for the blind, which is convenient for the blind to ride smoothly without guidance. \ r \ n \ r \ nBeijing-Tianjin intercity express rail: equipped with automatic electronic doors and toilets \ r \ n \ r \ nBeijing-Tianjin intercity express rail has specially designed humanized areas for the disabled. In this area, disabled people can take care of themselves in their daily lives without obstacles, such as going to the toilet. Remarkably, there is an electronic device next to the door of the toilet. As long as it is touched lightly, the door can be opened automatically, which greatly facilitates the disabled and other people with limited mobility to enter the toilet.
