Understanding Canadian Accessibility Codes and Standards
Several crucial regulations in Canada require tactile installations in public spaces. These ensure visually impaired individuals can safely navigate surroundings independently.
Key regulations include:
The AODA sets accessibility standards for Ontario across various sectors. It mandates tactile installation in all newly constructed or renovated public spaces.
The CSA Group develops standards for accessibility in the built environment across Canada. CSA B651 is the key standard for tactile walking surface indicators.
The National Building Code of Canada includes accessibility requirements for new construction and renovations. It adopts tactile requirements from CSA standards.
Provincial building codes like Ontario's contain additional accessibility rules for construction. These also reference CSA tactile installation standards.
By selecting Advantage Tactile Systems for your projects, you can seamlessly comply with all provincial and national regulations.
