The access limitations of our urban areas, as a result of poor planning and design, are largely attributed to traditional neglect of the disabled population as a minority group. However, recent data reveals a reality which is to the contrary. Moreover, this issue will be further exacerbated by a rapidly aging population. In recent years, there has been greater recognition by government of the need to rectify accessibility barriers, and moves have been initiated to improve accessibility in building design. Yet a holistic approach has yet to be devised to remove such barriers from the public domain in totality. Urban planning must provide a built environment which facilitates the needs of people with disabilities and encourages their independence and social inclusion. The aim of this thesis is to identify accessibility barriers within the public domain and recommend the means in which planning can play a role to rectify them. With the aid of a wheelchair and a camera, an accessibility audit was undertaken in the CBD, inner and outer areas of Metropolitan Sydney to identify barriers.

    OLD MANS VALLEY COMMUNITY LAND DRAFT PLAN OF MANAGEMENT October 2011 Old Mans Valley. The study area sits above Hornsby Quarry and below Hornsby Park within close proximity to the CBD, residential areas and Berowra Valley Regional Park. Prepared under the provisions of the Local Government Act 1993 Parks and Landscape Team Hornsby Shire Council Old Mans Valley – Draft Plan of Management Foreword PLAN OF MANAGEMENT – DRAFT Council has prepared this Plan of Management (PoM) as a draft Plan concerned with an open space area known as Old Mans Valley (OMV). OMV forms part of a valley to the west of the Hornsby Town Centre. OMV occupies Lots 1 and 2 of Plan Number 169188 and Lot 1 of Plan Number 112343, which is community land owned by Hornsby Shire Council. It occupies an area of approximately 12.5 hectares, the majority of which has been modified by the activities of early European settlement including logging and farming, followed by impacts associated with quarrying on the adjoining former Hornsby Quarry land to the west. Quarrying resulted in deposits of overburden being placed in OMV, augmented with additional filling with a view to establishing playing fields in OMV. These field construction works remain incomplete and recreation use of the site is limited to unstructured activities. The site has potential for well used recreation facilities when developed. The OMV site is proposed to be developed for structured and unstructured recreation, which will be outlined in this PoM. OMV adjoins Hornsby Park on its eastern and southern boundaries and the former Hornsby Quarry site on its western boundary (see aerial photo in Figure 1).
