Accessibility score

100/100 · Excellent

The homepage passed every automated WCAG 2.2 A/AA check we run. That removes the common, machine-detectable barriers; it does not mean every page or every manual criterion passes.

In plain English

What this means for visitors

The scan of the city's website found no issues, which is great news for visitors with disabilities. This means real people who use screen readers, keyboard only, or have low vision may be able to navigate the site more easily. However, automated scans don't catch everything, so it's still important to test with real users. Since no issues were found, the next step is to consider user testing to ensure the site is accessible to everyone.

Findings

No automated violations on the homepage

Each item is one failing rule; the count shows how many elements on the page trigger it. Severity follows axe-core impact levels.

Nothing failed the automated checks. Automated tools cover roughly a third to a half of WCAG criteria; alt-text quality, captions, reading order and custom widgets still need a human check.

Severity guide

How to read the counts

Critical

Blocks a task outright for some visitors (for example an image-only flyer with no text, or a form field with no label).

Major

Makes a task significantly harder (low contrast, links with no name, missing frame titles).

Minor

Reduces clarity or consistency (heading order, landmarks, touch-target size).

What this grade does and does not cover

  • Covers: the public homepage only, loaded once in a desktop browser, tested with axe-core against WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA rules (a superset of the WCAG 2.1 AA standard in the DOJ rule).
  • Does not cover: inner pages, PDFs and documents, logged-in portals, video captions, alt-text quality, keyboard usability of custom widgets, or anything that needs a human judgment.
  • A grade is a monitoring signal, not a legal assessment or certification. How we score.
