The fo
23、llowing applies to this standard: The definitions and requirements describe specific aspects of Design for PRM use required by persons with disabilities and persons with reduced mobility as defined in the PRM TSI; This standard defines elements which are universally valid for obstacle free travellin
24、g including steps for access and egress and boarding aids. The definitions and requirements of this standard are to be used for rolling stock applications; This standard only refers to aspects of accessibility for PRM passengers it does not define general requirements and general definitions; This s
25、tandard assumes that the vehicle is in the defined operating condition; Where minimum or maximum dimensions are quoted these are absolute NOT nominalThe Accessibility of persons with reduced mobility standard is written in two parts: This document is Part 1 and contains: Steps for access and egress
