Spatial accessibility for persons with physical and visual disabilities and older people in public green space

The general background of people with disabilities, besides medical and individual perspectives, is associated with structural and social perspectives. The environment has a huge impact on their life experiences and the extent of their mobility difficulties.  Among the restrictions faced, there is t...

description The general background of people with disabilities, besides medical and individual perspectives, is associated with structural and social perspectives. The environment has a huge impact on their life experiences and the extent of their mobility difficulties.  Among the restrictions faced, there is their recreation, since it is common, in Brazilian cities, to find public green spaces that have inadequate accessibility considering people with disabilities. This article aims to present an evaluation of spatial accessibility, focusing on the persons with physical and visual disabilities and older people, carried out at João Goulart Park, located in Santa Rosa, RS, through access audit. The method considered the recommendations of Brazilian standards and components of spatial accessibility (mobility, orientation, occupation and communication). The results show that the park spaces are not completely accessible to the studied groups; there are problems related to all components of spatial accessibility considered in this study, despite the intended application of Brazilian standards. The visually impaired people are the ones who face the most difficulties. Older people face fewer difficulties. The results demonstrate that technical audits can contribute to understanding and solutions to problems related to spatial accessibility and the importance of thinking about accessibility from an understanding of the specific needs concerning disabilities or reduced mobility.

As circunstâncias em que se inserem pessoas com deficiência e mobilidade reduzida, além da perspectiva médica e individual, incluem uma perspectiva estrutural e social, em que o ambiente tem um enorme impacto sobre a experiência e a extensão das suas dificuldades de mobilidade. Dentre as restrições enfrentadas, está o seu lazer, visto que é frequente, nas cidades brasileiras, encontrar espaços livres públicos de lazer que possuem falta de acessibilidade. Este artigo tem por objetivo apresentar uma avaliação de acessibilidade espacial, com foco em deficientes físicos, visuais e idosos, realizada no Parque João Goulart, em Santa Rosa, RS, por meio de vistoria técnica. O método baseou-se nas recomendações da NBR9050 e em componentes da acessibilidade espacial (deslocamento, orientação, uso e comunicação). Os resultados apontam que os espaços do parque não são totalmente acessíveis ao grupo estudado, apresentando problemas em relação a todos os componentes da acessibilidade espacial, a despeito do projeto ter buscado atender o PCD. O público menos atendido são os deficientes visuais e os mais atendidos, os idosos. Os resultados dessa pesquisa confirmam a contribuição das vistorias técnicas para melhor compreender e solucionar problemas relacionados à acessibilidade espacial e a importância de abordá-la a partir da compreensão das necessidades específicas de cada indivíduo em condição de mobilidade reduzida ou deficiência.
