      Accessibility infrastructure data

      Requested Fri 24 July 2026
      Responded Fri 21 August 2026

      Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (and the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 where applicable), I request the following information held by the council.
      In accordance with section 11 of the Act — and section 11(1A) as these are datasets — please provide each item electronically in a re-usable, machine-readable format (CSV or Excel) rather than PDF, including location coordinates or addresses where held:  
      1. Public conveniences: the council's register of public toilets, including location, opening arrangements, accessibility features (accessible cubicle, RADAR key requirement, baby changing), and Changing Places facilities. If a public-toilets GIS layer exists on the council's mapping system, an export of that layer's data would satisfy this item.  
      2. Dropped kerbs: any register, asset list or GIS layer of dropped kerbs / kerb ramps on the public highway maintained by the council or its highways contractor, including location.  
      3. Pedestrian crossings: the council's inventory of signalised and non-signalised pedestrian crossings, including crossing type and any recorded accessibility attributes (audible signal, rotating tactile cone, tactile paving).  
      4. Disabled parking bays: locations of on-street disabled persons' parking bays (both Traffic Regulation Order bays and advisory bays) within the council's area.
