And on a very different scale, here’s a tactile map of a restroom on a train. I’ve seen many of those kinds of tactical maps.pic.twitter.com/V7ZRjnBR8v
177. That the train seat numbers are in Braille also will be of surprise to no one at this point.pic.twitter.com/hxl7p9pW7L
178. That the train seats have handles to hold onto since the train can sway a bit as you’re moving is also thoughtful.pic.twitter.com/K3hnYF1sey
179. But what’s truly wonderful is that those handles are in many more places, helping people who can’t stand for long. Here’s an example of one set next to the elevator.pic.twitter.com/D2mu7r4lj8
180. More hooks! A multi-purpose holder next to another ATM, plus an umbrella hook in a restroom. (I felt so uncomfortable taking that photo. In general, I feel I’m getting away with things, since my iPhone doesn’t have a forced shutter sound like Japanese phones do!)pic.twitter.com/SGNrLs6CJL
181. And lockers! They are everywhere: train stations, museums, just chilling outside next to vending machines. Some are advanced – tap your card to lock and pay – and others much more simple. But they are all SO CONVENIENT. (Bonus: more humanoid trash cans.)pic.twitter.com/uynUoTil0c
182. All modern elevators have another set of buttons for people in wheelchairs. (Which I’ve noticed are, funny thing about accessibility, much more useful to many others, too!)pic.twitter.com/mRRazr4lGY
(Although I chuckled seeing that glued on protector in that last elevator. I also saw a more old-school way of solving the accidental button press problem elsewhere.)pic.twitter.com/aciu4FpKmG
You’ve run into double or triple press to undo an elevator button press, right?
I remember to test it sometimes, but it never worked so far.
