The design of dropped kerbs must take into account the different, and conflicting, needs of visually impaired people and wheelchair users. Dropped kerbs make it much easier for wheelchair users, and people with pushchairs, trolleys etc. to overcome abrupt changes in level which they would otherwise find difficult or impossible. Visually impaired people, however, require some physical indication of the edge of a pavement; in order to avoid walking unaware on to the road, kerbs are used by them to indicate the presence of a road. The External Approach: Controlled Crossings/Dropped Kerbs Access Audit Survey Toolkit (UK) app helps give insight to considerations for people with disabilities. The app covers kerb location, gradient, width, depth, and surface to accommodate for all pedestrian types.

“I’m not a tech guy and I was able to pick this thing up in probably an hour, and actually start to build apps. I’ve done them over lunch when I’ve gotten frustrated with a process that didn’t exist in our company. So for non tech people who’ve got a problem, the support here is awesome and I’d recommend it to anybody, not just in our industry.”
