Balfour Beatty has introduced a total of 203 cabins designed to be environmentally sustainable and inclusive for people with neurodiverse conditions such as autism, ADHD, and dyslexia.
Trialled across three UK projects last year, the EcoSense cabins have now been established on all new sites since the start of the year. The company expects combined they will cut at least 1,400 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions each year.
Some of the neurodiversity features include coloured plug sockets and switches to assist the visually impaired. There are also LED dimmable lights for those hyper-sensitive to bright light, and wider corridors for wheelchairs.
