Their participation is a right and a responsibility. If you are blind or have low vision, this project is for you.

A new solution is being tested at Gare do Oriente to improve orientation and mobility. But this solution will only make sense if it responds to your real needs.

No one better than the blind and low-sighted people themselves to assess what works. Without its validation, this solution will not be replicated in other transport interfaces.

This is not just an invitation – it is a matter of citizenship.

Accessibility is a right.

And your participation is essential to defend it.

Public resources should only be used for solutions:

- that work in practice

- which are validated by the persons for whom they are intended

This principle is clear:

“Nothing about us, without us.”

By participating, you are:

• Defending your rights to accessibility
• Ensure that solutions meet your needs
• Contribute to these improvements reaching other locations
• Promoting a fairer and more inclusive society

Participate. Accessibility also depends on you.

TML - Transportes Metropolitanos de Lisboa invites blind and low-sighted people to experience a new accessible route at Gare do Oriente, developed to facilitate the connection between the metro station and the quays of the metropolitan rail.

This route integrates guidance solutions (tactile floors and Wayfinding) designed to support more autonomous, safe and intuitive journeys in the garage space.

Find out all this information and where to access the registration form for guided tours and the evaluation form HERE.
