All parks in Tehran will be equipped by next March with wheelchairs to accommodate people with disabilities,” said Tehran Mayor Mohamamd Baqer Qalibaf. “Also, one park in each of the 22 municipal districts will be standardized to create a barrier free environment to ensure easy access for the physically challenged,” he was quoted by ISNA as saying. A special center to provide cross-city transportation facilities has been established for persons with disabilities, and the Tehran Taxi Management and Supervision Organization will cooperate in the project.
