Recommendation 27
27
Effective enforcement routes for street environment accessibility are absent and insufficient.
Conclusion
There appears to be no effective or easily available enforcement route for accessibility in the street environment in particular. There is instead a reliance on upstream measures such as local authorities following good practice, consulting effectively and having “due regard” under the Public Sector Equality Duty, but these appear insufficient to ensure good outcomes for accessibility. (Conclusion, Paragraph 165)
