Non-accessible content on SBB.ch.
Non-accessible or partially non-accessible content | Accessibility alternatives | Reason |
---|---|---|
Complex plans and maps | None | Currently, it is not technically possible to offer fully accessible maps on a website. |
PDF files from third parties | None | It is not the responsibility of SBB to make third-party content accessible. |
Captcha | Log in with the SwissPass login. Or carry out process by post. | In the evaluation of captchas, the Google captcha used at SBB was the one that best met the accessibility requirements. SBB monitors the products on the market. As soon as an accessible captcha becomes available, SBB will evaluate the captcha again. |
Tickets in PDF format | Display on SBB Mobile or on SBB.ch as a screen ticket or print out the PDF. | Disproportionately high level of effort required. |
