Adapting Cracow’s Stare Debniki Area to the Mobility Needs of Sight-Impaired People

An ageing society and the predicted increase in the visual impairment of older people requires attention to be paid to the accessibility and social inclusivity of urban spaces. This paper reviews spatial barriers with particular emphasis on the limited mobility of people with visual dysfunction. Furthermore, by the example of the Stare Dębniki area in Cracow, the paper includes improvement opportunities related to the accessibility of urban spaces. The detailed let’s make noise project was developed at the ‘Przepis na miasto’ workshop.
