Non-accessible information

  • The information on our online maps is difficult to access. Essential information about the localisation of the routes and the projects (such as the municipality names) always appears on our website in text form. This is in accordance with Art. II.17. of the administrative decree.
  • · www.fietssnelwegen.be publishes documents such as PDF files of various origins. This often concerns design plans (AutoCAD) or study results that contain a lot of map material. Those documents do not always meet the accessibility requirements.
  • Some images do not yet have a correct alternative description. Testing is done on a regular basis to supplement it.
  • Not all videos have subtitles, audio description or a transcript yet. In 2021, all videos will be provided with subtitles and, where necessary, a transcript.
  • Some lists or tables are not yet formatted correctly. This will be systematically reviewed with every page update that contains a table.
  • Form fields are not always provided with autocomplete attributes that make it possible to fill in the form automatically via the browser.
  • Some texts and some non-textual elements score below the minimum contrast ratio. This only concerns secondary information on the pages.
