1 How do you create a town?
Fukushi town development is completed after two things are calculated.
① So that everyone can go out to town for reasons. To that end, eliminate steps in buildings and roads, and create elevators.
+
② To understand the feelings of various people living in the town and have a heart to help each other.
Together, these two things create a town of Fukushi that is friendly to both buildings and people!
Let's think about it!
What kind of things would be more convenient?
What if there is one step?
Slope
People using wheelchairs can get over the steps with this.
How do you go upstairs?
Elevator
Elevators are also used on the platform of the station.
Transfer has become easier.
How do you use the toilet?
Multipurpose toilet
Handrails are provided and the space is large so that people using wheelchairs and the elderly can use it easily.
When a visually impaired person walks?
Braille block
It is one of the guides for visually impaired people to walk around the town.
5 When I use the parking lot?
Large parking lot
People in wheelchairs need a large parking lot because they open the door of the car.
What other useful things do you have?
Let's go out to the town and look for it!
