Roaming around the Hydro
Visit date:
This review is especially helpful for those who have or use the following: Wheelchair, Powerchair
Overview
Markings weren't quite clear enough in the building which actually resulted in the staff member (that was giving us a tour) getting lost!
Transport & Parking
I was dropped off at the entrance so unsure of parking provision.
Access
It seemed that the entrance at the side of the Hydro is used for level access (this is certainly the entrance we were asked to use). If so, again there was no signage advising of this but once inside it was spacious enough and the lifts were big enough for at least 2 wheelchairs which is a bonus.
Toilets
I didn't visit the toilets so unsure of the access rating for them.
Staff
The staff members who took us around were pleasant enough but probably wouldn't be the people assisting wheelchair users to their spaces on a daily bases as they were often confused where the wheelchair sections on each stand were.
Anything else you wish to tell us?
We found it quite confusing to find our way around and this was a time when the building was empty. I can only imagine it will be even more difficult when the venue is packed. However, there will be more staff on hand then to assist with queries etc which should help to solve that problem.
