Wexford Disabled Visitors
Most hotels and guesthouses in Wexford are modifying the services they provide in order to facilitate people who have disabilities. Most of the buses and trains of the city are now equipped so that they can be accessed by wheelchairs. Notable heritage spots, museums, and other places of interest are also designed so that disabled visitors can get around without having to face problems.
Wexford’s train stations have portable ramps and they even provide wheelchairs to transfer people with walking difficulties to and from the trains. The stations also have a PA system for making announcements so that even people who are visually impaired can hear them. A program has also been developed to introduce induction loops at ticket-booking offices for the hearing-impaired. In some of the stations, tactile tiles have been used to help visually impaired people.
The trains themselves have wide doors and feature a large entrance area to accommodate wheelchairs. The dining car of each train has a special area to accommodate the mobility-impaired. Guide dogs and hearing dogs for disabled people can be taken into buffets and restaurants in trains, and also into buildings.
The newer elevators in most buildings are equipped with Braille-coded buttons, and they speak the number of the floor upon arrival to assist the people who cannot see.
