Scientific and Practical Recommendations on the Organization of Natural Landmarks for the Blind in the Territories and Buildings of Socially Important Objects of the City
Journal Title: Современное промышленное и гражданское строительство - Year 2018, Vol 14, Issue 2
Abstract
The article is devoted to the problem of facilitating the conditions of spatial orientation and movement of the blind in the territories and in the buildings of socially significant objects of the city. Based on the results previously performed by dendrological and experimental studies by the authors, a wide range of tree species, flowering shrubs, and urban ornamental and wild flowers are offered, which can be used as natural landmarks for the blind. In complex and unsafe areas of the main routes for the movement of the blind, it is proposed to purposefully provide for landscaping elements that have pronounced noise, tactile-morphological or aromatic characteristics. The principles of the design of the proposed natural landmarks are illustrated by examples of landscaping of various types of complex and unsafe road sections that may appear on the main routes of the blind movement (places where the pedestrian pathway joins the roadway, multifactor crossings of transport and pedestrian communications, small and significant elevations, before the flight of stairs and inclined descents, dangerous door opening zones, ostenting and hovering elements on the traffic line and others ). Attention is focused on the importance of identifying, preserving and subsequently multiplying the elements of gardening that can provide significant assistance to blind people in their spatial orientation and movement.
