Abstract

The accessibility of urban areas and pedestrian networks is closely linked to the ease with which people can move in their environment. This depend on environmental factors, and can be divided into physical or social factors. An optimal integrated analysis of accessibility requires the analysis of both types of factors, social and physical. The research is based on preliminary research in which the persons with disabilities are asked to comment on problems and elements of accessibility in public space. Based on the answers, the survey was formed about the problems and solutions for accessibility in opens spaces of pedestrian traffic. The survey was oriented to persons with mobility and visual disability and aims to highlight the criticalities and benefits produced by three different urban spaces, such as parking lots, streets and squares and also to grade the perceived importance of various problems and solutions by persons with disabilities (motor and visual).The accessibility of urban areas and pedestrian networks is closely linked to the ease with which people can move in their environment. This depend on environmental factors, and can be divided into physical or social factors. An optimal integrated analysis of accessibility requires the analysis of both types of factors, social and physical. The research is based on preliminary research in which the persons with disabilities are asked to comment on problems and elements of accessibility in public space. Based on the answers, the survey was formed about the problems and solutions for accessibility in opens spaces of pedestrian traffic. The survey was oriented to persons with mobility and visual disability and aims to highlight the criticalities and benefits produced by three different urban spaces, such as parking lots, streets and squares and also to grade the perceived importance of various problems and solutions by persons with disabilities (motor and visual).

城市和社会因素在城市地区运动和视觉障碍者无障碍环境中的作用

城市地区和步行网络的可达性与人们在其环境中移动的便利性密切相关。这取决于环境因素，并可分为物理或社会因素。可达性的最佳综合分析需要分析两种类型的因素，社会和物理。本研究是在初步研究的基础上进行的，在初步研究中，残疾人被要求对公共空间无障碍的问题和要素发表评论。在此基础上，形成了关于行人交通开放空间可达性存在的问题及解决方案的调查。该调查以行动不便和视力残疾人士为对象，旨在强调停车场、街道和广场等三种不同城市空间所产生的重要性和益处，并对残疾人(运动和视力)所认识到的各种问题和解决方案的重要性进行评分。城市地区和步行网络的可达性与人们在其环境中移动的便利性密切相关。这取决于环境因素，并可分为物理或社会因素。可达性的最佳综合分析需要分析两种类型的因素，社会和物理。本研究是在初步研究的基础上进行的，在初步研究中，残疾人被要求对公共空间无障碍的问题和要素发表评论。在此基础上，形成了关于行人交通开放空间可达性存在的问题及解决方案的调查。该调查以行动不便和视力残疾人士为对象，旨在强调停车场、街道和广场等三种不同城市空间所产生的重要性和益处，并对残疾人(运动和视力)所认识到的各种问题和解决方案的重要性进行评分。
