Access For All
Ramps, dropped kerbs and repaired pavements across Plymouth — and practical access advice for local businesses.
About City Centre
The City Centre part of the ward covers Armada Way, Royal Parade and the streets around them. For Jon the two questions here are always the same: can a disabled person actually get around it, and are independent traders being helped or hindered.
He has worked with Plymouth City Centre Company, local building firms and disability charities on ramps, dropped kerbs and pavement repairs, and secured an amphitheatre at the top of the new Armada Way scheme.
