Asphalt is the easiest surface to push on and feels safe

Steep dropped kerbs and a short crossing phase makes crossing over to Shopmobility difficult

Wheelchair user who sits in reclined position is unable to reach station ticket machine or desk

Uneven paving causes difficulties for everyone

No tonal contrast on steps

Southgate Centre popular due to wheelchair access

Narrow crowded footways on Stall St and Westgate St cause difficulties for many

Low tonal contrast between pavement and road and unpredictable level changes cause issues for people with sight loss
