Working closely with the Museum, step-free access has been installed that does not impede on walls, and models of displays have been developed to enable those with limited vision to touch and understand the significance of Bath. Audio tours are complimented by sign language transcriptions for deaf visitors.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight ); color: #000000;\">Due to the City\u2019s UNESCO status, in addition to UK guidance, reference was made to UNESCO\u2019s Operational Guidelines for the Implementation of the World Heritage Convention and guidelines for the World Heritage Fund.
