That is why individual accessibility initiatives and measures must work in sync and together create a complete route for a person - from education and work to services, recovery and an active life. 1 month ago • 2 min [/en/blog/the-ministry-and-the-barrier-free-movement-team-joined-the-national-unity-radio-dictation-ba0c1769](https://minregion.gov.ua/en/blog/the-ministry-and-the-barrier-free-movement-team-joined-the-national-unity-radio-dictation-ba0c1769) ### The Ministry and the Barrier-Free Movement team joined the National Unity Radio Dictation 10 days ago • 2 min ## Useful links Find documents, services and open public discussions. - [Documents and regulations](https://minregion.gov.ua/en/documents) - [Services and guidance](https://minregion.gov.ua/en/services) - [Public consultations](https://minregion.gov.ua/en/consultations) ## Need help?

Participants examined updated criteria for assessing physical accessibility and practical requirements for streets and roads. “Accessibility must cover a person’s entire journey — from their home to the building or space they need, without obstacles at any point. Streets and roads are an important part of these routes, because they connect facilities and must ensure continuous and accessible movement. Monitoring gives communities a real picture of accessibility and helps them use data to identify where changes are needed and what those changes should be,” Deputy Minister Nataliia Kozlovska stressed. The training paid particular attention to the updated checklist for streets and roads. Specialists were shown how to conduct inspections, fill in accessibility forms, apply assessment criteria and enter results into the system. The checklists now contain graphic examples for each criterion. This should make specialists’ work easier and help ensure a common understanding and assessment of accessibility requirements. A distinctive feature of monitoring streets and roads is that they are linear features. They cannot be assessed at a single point: a specialist must walk the street from beginning to end and check pedestrian routes, crossings and other infrastructure elements on both sides. The monitoring will assess, among other things: - whether pedestrian routes are free of obstacles and sufficiently wide; - the condition of the surface and the presence of curb ramps, ramps and handrails; - standard and special tactile guides; the safety and accessibility of stairs; - accessibility of at-grade, elevated and underground crossings; the presence of audible signals and adequate lighting at crossings; - separation of cycle paths from pedestrian routes. Approximately 2800 street and road features are already marked on the Accessibility Map, a digital representation of the monitoring results. This year, the number is expected to increase to more than 10 thousand. ## Other news - October 29, 2026[The resilience of Ukrainian communities has a cost — and it extends beyond damaged infrastructure](https://minregion.gov.ua/en/blog/the-resilience-of-ukrainian-communities-has-a-cost-and-it-extends-beyond-damaged-infrastructure-aa9323f7) - October 28, 2026[Nearly 4.5 thousand streets and 33.5 thousand addresses verified in Ukraine during the III quarter](https://minregion.gov.ua/en/blog/nearly-4-5-thousand-streets-and-33-5-thousand-addresses-verified-in-ukraine-during-the-iii-quarter-b26fefb3) - October 28, 2026[Minregion will mobilise an additional UAH 4 billion for housing vouchers for IDPs from temporarily occupied territories: agreement with the Council of Europe Development Bank](https://minregion.gov.ua/en/blog/minregion-will-mobilise-an-additional-uah-4-billion-for-housing-vouchers-for-idps-from-temporarily-occupied-0a3d7717) ## Join the discussion Read draft materials and send your proposals during open public consultations.
