Accessibility is the word used to describe whether a place , service or product (e.g bus, building, website ) can be used by people of all abilities and disabilities.
For example, a train or website is accessible if all people, including abled, disabled and elderly people, can use it. .
As Local Guides, we are always looking to ensure that accessibility information are added to Google Maps in order to make it usable by all. .

@EmekaUlor es importante incluir este tipo de información en todos los lugares que existen en nuestras ciudades. Quizás sea bueno evaluar los tipos de pisos porque existen superficies que impiden un tránsito fluido de personas con movilidad limitada
