Milton Keynes City Council has delivered 15 schemes across the city to make areas more accessible.
The £25K Accessibility Fund is used each year to help improve access on the highway in MK and/or remove obstacles. Anyone is able to make a request to the fund to improve accessibility on the public highway.
This year Milton Keynes City Council carried out schemes in Bletchley, Woburn Sands, Fullers Slade, and Stoke Goldington.
A Milton Keynes City Council spokesperson said, "Most schemes this year included: refreshing disabled bay markings, installing dropped kerbs or handrails, and adding tactile paving, which is a textured surface close to a crossing point to make visually impaired people aware."
Schemes typically involve eliminating unnecessary street furniture that can obstruct pedestrians with mobility challenges or installing dropped kerbs or handrails where none currently exist.
Applications are evaluated according to predetermined standards, like the number of beneficiaries of a program and whether or not it would be implemented within the fiscal year if accepted.
