Federation Square in Melbourne and The Disability Discrimination Act 1992 

The Federation Square in Melbourne has been constructed without taking into account the needs of the disabled in Melbourne. There is uneven and sloping surfaces, incomplete 
wheelchair access, lack of hand (safety) rails in some places and lack of information for the blind, deaf and the speach impaired.

There is a discrimination between the able bodies and the disabled. Has the Government lost the aesthetic values for the disabled?
