Accessibility in Shanghai

What kind of living conditions the city can provide for the disabled is one of the important measures to measure the degree of social civilization. It is understood that there are 940000 disabled people in Shanghai. What is the level of accessibility in Shanghai? Let's see what the reporters tell you with their own experience.

[disabled: Shanghai is one of the top cities in China for the construction of barrier free facilities] on December 3, when the international day of disabled people came, the reporter visited several disabled people and asked their opinions on the construction of barrier free facilities in Shanghai. " Mr. Yi from Wuhan has just worked in Shanghai for half a year. He said that he has been to Beijing, Hangzhou, Haikou and other cities, and the experience of accessible facilities in Shanghai is undoubtedly the best. " You can go wherever you want and basically do anything. "Like Mr. Yi, Mr. Ke also gave a positive evaluation. In 2011, Mr. Ke got into a wheelchair because of spinal cord injury and high paraplegia caused by a car accident. I thought life would lose color, but in Shanghai, he still lived a free life. Of course, the accessibility facilities in Shanghai are not perfect. During the exchange, the reporter learned that there are still many details to be improved for the accessibility facilities in Shanghai. Common problems include: "the pile on the ground blocks the road", "the barrier free elevator sign at the subway entrance is not in place", "the barrier free elevator is missing on the bridge", etc. some disabled friends jokingly said to reporters: "you can experience it yourself, maybe you will find a lot." So the reporter decided to sit in a wheelchair for a day to experience the construction of barrier free facilities in Shanghai.

[the reporter gets on the wheelchair and experiences the barrier free facilities in Shanghai] the first step on the road is to experience the road. The reporter experienced several sections of Jing'an District and Huangpu District, and found that there was a slope between the sidewalk and the road to help the disabled change roads. Generally speaking, the trip went well.

During the visit, the reporter found that in order to facilitate the transportation of goods, most of the gates of the vegetable market have been set with slopes, which only help the disabled. The reporter specially visited two two two-story vegetable markets and found that both of them were open to the disabled freight elevator. The purchase process was very smooth.

Supermarkets are the same as food markets. The reporter visited the two-tier supermarket. Generally speaking, there are escalators in supermarkets for customers to use. But disabled friends told reporters that using such escalators is not safe. During the field trip, the staff immediately opened the freight elevator to help us reach the second floor. The shopping process went well, too.

The shopping mall went well and most of the security uncles were friendly.
