Ex-post control AOB fights for accessible railway stations The AOB considers it unacceptable that railway stations no longer have wheelchair access after renovation measures, where they were originally accessible. During the reporting year, the AOB has been greatly committed to ensuring that the responsible parties at the Austrian Federal Railways provide barrier-free access to railway stations and that accessibility remains after renovations. 3.6 Science, Research and Economics 3.6.1 Fundamental rights Still no barrier-free access to the Theseus Temple Exhibitions at the Theseus Temple in the Vienna Volksgarten (centrally located public park) are not wheelchair accessible. Planning works for a transportable and temporary ramp may be complete, but its construction continues to be delayed. The AOB already reported in its Annual Report 2012 that the Theseus Temple, which the Vienna Museum of Fine Arts uses as an exhibition space during the summer, is not accessible by wheelchair. As a result of the AOB’s intervention, the Vienna Museum of Fine Arts, the Austrian Burghauptmannschaft (the authority responsible for the efficient management and the conservation of historic buildings owned by the Republic of Austria), the Austrian Bundesdenkmalamt (the Federal Office for the Care of Monuments) and the Austrian National Council of Disabled Persons are jointly looking for a solution. A ramp was suggested which could be set up during the exhibition season between April and September/October. As a transitional solution, the Museum of Fine Arts provided additional staff during the summer of 2013 who offered and provided mobility-restricted individuals with help in reaching the Temple. The promised ramp has so far not been implemented. Planned ramp not yet built Individual case: VA-BD-WA/0099-C/1/2012 51
