6 SHELTERS 6.24 Dimensions for seats • For perch rails – approximately 700mm above ground level. • For other seats – approximately 450mm above ground level. • If seats are used – armrests, if provided, should be 200mm above seat level and be sufficiently robust to allow passengers to push themselves up from the seat. 6.25 Benches and seats should be in bright,‘warm’ materials with a nonslip surface, which is strong, easy to clean, and (in exposed positions) quick to dry. Slatted wood or plastic coated metal meet these requirements. 6.26 In all shelters, and for obvious reasons, consideration should be given to the provision of litterbins and regular cleaning and maintenance are essential.
