Accessible Waiting Areas and Station Facilities at Mobility Hubs

Inclusive design in waiting areas and station facilities enhances the experience of passengers with disabilities at mobility hubs.

  • Ensure that waiting areas feature comfortable, accessible seating, including options for people using wheelchairs or with limited mobility.
  • Provide charging stations for mobile devices, ensuring they are accessible for all passengers.
  • Design sheltered waiting areas to protect passengers from weather, improving the overall experience for those with mobility impairments.
  • Ensure public restrooms at mobility hubs are accessible, with wide doors, low sinks, and ample space for wheelchair users.
  • Incorporate noise-reduction elements in waiting areas to provide a quieter space for individuals with sensory sensitivities.
