Greater Accessibility at Monash Sport
From Monash Sport News:
As a part of our ongoing commitment to provide for all our member’s and customer’s needs, Monash Sport is proud to continue to improve accessibility specifically for those with limited mobility or wheelchair access requirements.
As a part of this commitment, we have refurbished the Change Rooms at the Doug Ellis Swimming pool to feature two dedicated accessible change rooms. The male and female change rooms also feature an ambulant toilet.
Additionally, the accessible ramp and adjacent stairs at the main entry to the Monash Sport building (Building 1) has been updated to include a compliant hand rail and tactile tiles.
With refurbishments to the Stadium Change Rooms finishing in February, the accessible change room was open to also provide great accessibility to Monash Sport for all. This change room has been reconfigured so that the entry is located directly on the main corridor, rather than near the entry to the male change rooms. The male and female change rooms also feature an ambulant toilet.
To further this commitment, we are also currently constructing an accessible lift to allow access from the ground floor to the first floor of the Gym at Clayton. These works are already underway and will be finished by February/ March 2014.
Monash Sport looks forward to further improving our environment in 2014 to provide greater accessibility access.
