Factsheet no. 1 The French law of 11 February 2005 makes a clear distinction between mental, cognitive and psychological disabilities. It sets specific accessibility targets for people affected by each of these three types of disability. How are mental, cognitive and psychological disabilities defined? What disability situations are encountered and what are the resulting accessibility needs? What measures can be taken to meet these needs throughout the travel chain, including the built environment, transport, public space and roads? This factsheet attempts to answer these questions, focusing in particular on preparation for travel, access to facilities, personal assistance, information and signage, the quality of spaces and sensitive environments. Factsheet no. 3 The purpose of this factsheet is to present the main lessons learned from a study carried out by Cerema on behalf of the ministries for Ecological and inclusive Transition and Regional cohesion, at the request of the ministerial delegate for accessibility, whose objective was both: to better understand the specific characteristics and needs of older people; to assess how these needs are taken into account in accessibility regulations; to identify areas of work to improve the way in which the ageing of people in towns is taken into account.
