The strategy, published by the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) in September 2008, sets out how the Olympic Park will become the most accessible and inclusive park in London. The Park will feature wide pathways with smooth surfaces and seating and resting places at regular intervals, and set a new UK benchmark for wheelchair spaces and amenity seating. There will also be gentle gradients giving all users greater freedom of movement, and clear and easily understood signage.

The judges’ comments stated: "The Olympic Delivery Authority has turned traditional design principles on their heads. By taking a holistic view of people’s needs, it is using the power of the Games to change the way that people think about designing places… There is a strong indication that these principles will influence future sports facilities design."
