Accessibility issues in park design: The national parks
AbstractNational Parks in the USA are experiencing a demand to provide access from the rising population of older, disabled Americans. This paper examines some of the important issues of providing equal access and the impact of man-made interventions in the wilderness. Social, demographic and legislative reasoning are used to present the need for increased access and to discuss the effectiveness of the present policies. The economic, ecological and aesthetic implications of providing greater access and of human intervention are discussed. The paper concludes by emphasising that more effective policies are needed to maintain the integrity of the natural environment.
