23、pean foreword This document (EN 16587:2017) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 256 “Railway applications”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at t
24、he latest by December 2017, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by December 2017. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such pa
25、tent rights. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 2008/57/EC. For relationship with EU Directive 2008/57/EC, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral
26、part of this document. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of

31、 that covers Infrastructure Railway Applications Design for PRM Use - Requirements for Obstacle Free Routes for Infrastructure. These standards aim to clarify the requirements (with clear and consistent terms and definitions) and to define the associated criteria and, where appropriate, methodologie
32、s to allow a clear pass/fail assessment. BS EN 16587:2017EN 16587:2017 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard describes the specific Design for PRM Use requirements for obstacle-free routes applying to infrastructure and the assessment of those requirements. The following applies to this European Stan
33、dard: 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 European Standard defines elements which are universally valid for obstacle-free routes. The definitions and
34、requirements of this European Standard should be used for infrastructure applications; This European Standard only refers to aspects of accessibility for PRM passengers, it does not define general requirements and general definitions; This European Standard assumes that the infrastructure is in the
35、defined operating condition; Where minimum or maximum dimensions are quoted these are absolute NOT nominal requirements. This European Standard contains requirements relating to Obstacle-free routes. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in t

41、given in EN 16584-1 and the following apply. 3.1 obstacle-free route link between two or more public areas dedicated to the transport of passengers that can be navigated independently by all persons with disabilities and reduced mobility Note 1 to entry: In order to achieve this, the route can be di
42、vided to better meet the needs of all persons with disabilities and reduced mobility. The combination of all the parts of the obstacle-free route constitutes the route accessible for all persons with disabilities and reduced mobility. 3.2 step free route division of an obstacle-free route that meets
43、 the needs of mobility impaired persons by avoiding changes in level or, when they cannot be avoided, are bridged via ramps or lifts 3.3 weather protection protection against the effects of weather Note 1 to entry: The level of weather protection is regulated by national rules. 4 Symbols and abbrevi

Where additional assessment criteria apply, these
46、 will be identified against the relevant clause. All measurements in figures unless otherwise stated shall be in full millimetres. 5.2 Obstacle-free routes 5.2.1 General requirements of an obstacle-free route 1) Obstacle-free routes shall be provided i. that accommodate all categories of PRM on the
47、same route Where there are height changes the route may diverge to accommodate ramps, steps or lifts, for example. The route shall converge after the height changes and continue as a single route, unless the destination has already been reached. For assessment: an example scenario would be moving th
48、rough the station area to the platform area, the route diverges to utilize stairs and a separate lift or ramp to overcome the height change to the elevated walkway; the route converges on the elevated walkway above the tracks, then diverges to stairs and a separate lift or ramp, to overcome the heig
49、ht change back to platform level but there is no necessity to converge the routes again to a single, point as the platform was the destination. ii. at all times, for when trains are timetabled to operate at that station. iii. that interconnect the following public areas of the infrastructure, if provided and during the normal operation of those facilities: a) Stopping points for other connecting modes of transport within the station confines (for example, taxi, bus, tram, m
