CycloPark is fully committed to ensuring its website is accessible and inclusive for all its users.
Web accessibility focuses on ensuring all users, regardless of their physical and mental capability, are able to access the content and services on a particular website.
Our aim has been to make Cyclopark.com accessible to all who may be interested. Its design and build conforms to the following:
- Priority 1 of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines - www.w3.org/WAI/
- Which entails conformance with section III of the Disability Discrimination Act - www.direct.gov.uk
These guidelines include:
- Using an easy to read font type.
- Ensuring suitable foreground and background colour contrast
- Using clear and simple grammar
- Providing meaningful text equivalents for pictures
- Providing simple and consistent site navigation.
- Assigning access keys for key navigational elements
- Ensuring the target of each link is clearly defined
- Providing a Table of Contents
- Providing navigational short cuts for users of text only browsers and page readers
- Using appropriate structural mark-up to maximise browser support
- Ensuring all content and functionality is available to users without content style sheet (CSS), image and script support.
Multimedia
We host a number of different video clips on the site both to give people a wider view of our bid and to make our content more accessible to people who find it easier to view rather than read content, but text equivalents are provided for users without the means to view such content.
Known browser support
This website has been tested for support in all Grade-A browsers as defined in Yahoo's "Graded Browser Support" guidelines. Supported browsers include:
- Mozilla Firefox
- Safari
- Internet Explorer 6, 7 & 8
