1 What is the town of Fukushi?
Fukushi's town development is completed by combining two things.
① To ensure that everyone can go out to town for reasons. To that end, eliminate steps in buildings and roads and create elevators.
+
② Understand the feelings of various people living in the town and have a heart to help each other.
Together, these two things create a friendly Fukushi town for both buildings and people!
Let's think about it!
Which one would make it more convenient?
When there is a 1 step (Dansa)?
Slope
People using wheelchairs can get over the steps.
How do you go to the upper floor?
Elevator
Elevators are also used in the platform of the station.
It's easier to transfer.
3 When using 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 the visually impaired when walking around the town.
5 When using the parking lot (Chushajo)?
Large parking lot
People using wheelchairs need a large parking lot because they open the door of the car widely and ride.
What other useful things do you have?
Let's get out of town and look for it!
