Accessibility
The website stadt-zuerich.ch is largely accessible for people with disabilities.
Access Keys
On www.stadt-zuerich.ch there are access keys (key combinations) defined that permit navigation with the keyboard:
1 = To select department (horizontal navigation)
2 = To content
5 = To search
6 = To auxiliary navigation (e.g. Contact or Jobs)
7 = To other information
8 = To language selection
L = Read page aloud
How the access keys work
This is how the access keys work in Internet Explorer 9:
- Press ALT + access key
- Now you can navigate forwards with TAB and back with SHIFT + TAB to the individual links
- To go to a link, press ENTER.
Mac users should use the CTRL key instead of the ALT key
Various Browsers
Every browser has its own access-keys. Please look up this Wikipedia article.
Partial conformity
Some content has not been implemented entirely free of barriers. This mainly concerns applications that will be made accessible in the future. The relevant content is not part of the certified departments. People with disabilities will be offered the following contact options for those departments:
Department | Timetable |
---|---|
Roadworks A–Z list | Implementation date not yet fixed |
Structural Engineering Dept.: Archive of urban construction projects 2004–2009 | Content is mainly but not 100% barrier-free. No further measures planned. |
Archive of media releases 2002–2007 | No implementation planned |
Archive of ewz media releases 2002–2008 | No implementation planned |
