Breda continues to work towards accessibility
Through Breda.nl we link to other websites, such as the Map of Trees (Bomenkaart) and the map showing roadworks. Not all information on these websites fulfils the web guidelines. We are looking at ways of ensuring that any new information can be accessed here too in a user-friendly manner.
PDFs
The web guidelines set high requirements for PDFs. At Breda.nl, where possible, information is offered in short texts. PDFs of policy papers can be requested. In relation to policy papers that can be accessed at Breda.nl, we are unable to guarantee that all of these files meet the web guidelines.
