This paper reports on two pro-accessibility projects, namely Rio City projects 1 and 2, focusing on reurbanisation of the city of Rio de Janeiro. The goal was the Universal Design principle - to design with all users in mind, regardless of their physical abilities and include some universal solutions like ramps at crosswalks, which serve the purpose for both baby carriages, grocery carts, people carrying weights and people with difficulty in locomotion, and some special solutions like textured-coded footways to guide the visually impaired.
