FDOT - ADA Accessible Sidewalks Videos
Production Support Office


The U. S. Access Board encourages designers and engineers to watch these short films showing some of the difficulties disabled persons may have while traveling as pedestrians. Each video clip highlights unique problems impeding certain groups of individuals while maneuvering across commonly found pedestrian components. Sometimes, specific design elements for one disabled group can lead to access issues for another group. Watching all four clips gives a much better overall perspective on accessibility. Each segment is in Windows Media format (DVDs are available for mailing, if that format is more desirable).

Design Issues for Pedestrians Who Use Wheelchairs (10:00 minutes)
Design Issues for Pedestrians With Ambulatory Impairments (7:51)
Design Issues for Pedestrians With Low Vision (11:24)
