Preface of the Town Mayor
Bruges, Cultural Capital of Europe in 2002, ……………………the success can only be complete if the whole population can join in, if the doors are literally and figuratively open to everyone.
This accessibility guide has to be seen from this democratic point of view. ………………………………………………………….For persons with a motor, visual or hearing impairment, this guide contains a wealth of information.
It gives objective information about the accessibility of public and private buildings.

Preface of the Town Mayor
Moreover, this guide can sensitize the population and add to the positive image of Bruges 2002, Cultural Capital of Europe.
Bruges 2002 is a perfect opportunity for this kind of initiative, ……………………………………..the City Council wants to make Bruges literally and figuratively more accessible. ……………………………………………………………………the needs of the less mobile visitors will be met.
Indeed, Bruges is a city that every inhabitant and every visitor must be able to experience.
Patrick MOENAERT Burgomaster of Bruges11

The International Symbol of Access (ISA), also known as the (International) Wheelchair Symbol, consists of a blue square overlaid in white with a stylized image of a person using a wheelchair. It is maintained as an international standard, ISO 7001, and a copyrighted image of the International Commission on Technology and Accessibility (ICTA), a committee of Rehabilitation International.[1] It was designed by Susanne Koefoed in 1968.

10. Other results: regulations
Since the 1st of March 2010, a new legislation on the accessibility of public buildings has been introduced in Flanders. - accessibility has become a required element to be evaluated
when applying for a planning permission.- aim at making public buildings more accessible and useful for
everyone. - It’s a mistake to assume that accessibility is only relevant for
people with disabilities. In the end, everybody benefits from user friendly, safe and comfortable places.
- requires serious attention of designers, builders and policymakers.
