City of Ottawa logo  


As identified on their website, "The City of Ottawa has developed Accessibility Design Standards (ADS) to ensure that all City owned and operated spaces and facilities are inclusive and accessible to everyone. This commitment extends to residents, visitors and employees with visible or non-visible disabilities."

SPH worked closely with City Staff and a dedicated subcommittee to develop the ADS and extends our thanks to all stakeholders involved in this project that supports other ongoing initiatives to make the City of Ottawa inclusive for users of all ages and abilities.
