### Comment

Entrances should be accessible to an unassisted wheelchair user. Exits, particularly for emergency evacuation should be accessible. Where this is not possible for all exits then those that are accessible should be marked accordingly. Accessible emergency exits should lead on to pathways that provide an accessible route away from the building and not alongside it.

Inside layout should have sufficient aisle width as to allow an unassisted wheelchair user to manoeuvre.

Facilities, including toilets should be available for disabled staff as well as for disabled students.

The Disability Access Office holds a wide range of published information on design for mobility and will be pleased to assist you with any queries that may arise.

You can contact us on.
