Overview

This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 256 "Railway applications", the secretariat of which is held by DIN (Germany). The responsible German committee is NA 087-00-11-02 UA "Fahrzeuge und Infrastruktur für mobilitätseingeschränkte Personen" ("Vehicles and infrastructure for people with reduced mobility") at DIN Standards Committee Railway (FSF). This document is part of a suite of four 'Design for PRM use' standards that have in total nine parts. The EN 16586 series of standards deals with barrier-free access and consists of: "Part 1: Steps for access and egress", "Part 2: Boarding aids". These standards aim to clarify the requirements (with clear and consistent terms and definitions) and to define the associated criteria and, where appropriate, methodologies to allow a clear pass/fail assessment. This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 2008/57/EC.
