Commitment to Accessibility
The Legislative Assembly of British Columbia is committed to improving
accessibility for all British Columbians, regardless of their level of ability.
This includes striving to meet or exceed worldwide standards for developing and
maintaining accessible websites.
We will strive to ensure that our commitment to accessibility
promotes dignity, inclusion and independence for everyone.
Built Environment
Work continues to ensure that all Members, British
Columbians and visitors have accessible
access to and within the Parliament Buildings. This
includes the opening
of the barrier‐free Mowat Entrance
at the front of the main entrance
of the Parliament Buildings in March 2013.
In addition, work has been undertaken within the other areas of the building to
improve accessibility, including recent washroom upgrades, automatic door
openers, expanded accessible parking and sidewalk access.
Communications
and Information
We will continue to develop and modify our
communications and information materials so that they are in accessible formats
and that we use plain language where we can.
Supportive
Devices and Service Animals
Visitors
are welcome to bring any supportive devices or service animals to accompany
them during their visit to the Parliament Buildings.
