Access and Infrastructure - Design Tips

Do

Don't

  consider all components of a facility in the overall site design process

  consider access to and within a site carefully

  look at potential interaction between public and trade vehicles

  provide appropriate and clear signs

  consider boundary treatments as part of the overall design solution

  consider how lighting can complement design, but avoid unnecessary light pollution.

  disregard the contribution that an ancillary building will make to the overall appearance of the facility

  ignore the rights of disabled employees and visitors

  treat fencing as an afterthought

  introduce unsympathetic lighting, particularly in a rural context.
