The Ceremonial Room of the Palace of the City of Cartagena held a meeting on Friday, April 5 to talk about the technical accessibility office, one of the central points of the municipal ordinance on accessibility.
This is another meeting in the area of ​​Social Services of the City of Cartagena with actors in the city on inclusion since the accessibility regulations arrived.
The meeting was chaired by the Councilor for Social Services of Cartagena, Mercedes García.
The accessibility technical office will be the space in which citizens will be able to make their requests to improve the entrance to local infrastructures.
The Councilor for Social Services of the City of Cartagena, Mercedes Garcia, says that you can go to demand universal access "to a trade, public transport or a municipal office, it can be a number of sites."
The mayor of Social Services, Mercedes Garcia, ensures that the constitution of the technical accessibility office is to be outlined before the end of the term.
"It does not mean that everything is done, because this would be a first step to start walking again and be able to make day to day accessibility a reality, although it is clear that much remains to be done," says García.
The Councilor for Social Services of Cartagena ensures that we must act in municipal buildings or public transport among other sites.
The mayor of Social Services of Cartagena, Mercedes García, ensures that the current buildings "are already taking into account" universal accessibility, but states that "there is a lot, because there are many buildings that do not meet" the rules on entry for people with mobility reduced.
Therefore, the technical accessibility office will require that the buildings that show deficiencies in this section adapt to the universal entrance.
