By September 2020, we plan to either fix these or replace them with accessible HTML pages.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they\u2019re not essential to providing our services.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any new PDFs or Word documents we publish will meet accessibility standards.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">360 imagery and video&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We do not plan to further develop accessibility features in our 360 imagery and video because it is built using third party software and is exempt from meeting the accessibility regulations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Online maps&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We will try and ensure online maps are as accessible as possible by creating an accessible word document containing any essential information portrayed by the map, but online maps are currently exempt from meeting the accessibility regulations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What we\u2019re doing to improve accessibility&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our accessibility roadmap, summarised below, shows how and when we plan to improve accessibility on this site.
