This scientific paper aims to locate accessibility problems within the urban environment in the city of Shtip, which people with reduced mobility face on a daily basis. The geographic location of the city, the location of buildings, and the built infrastructure create architectural barriers that limit the movement of people with reduced mobility in urban areas. This is a case study where, through an analysis of the narrow urban core of the city of Shtip, a classification of architectural elements that pose a problem for the free movement of people with reduced mobility will be made, and based on the legal norms and knowledge obtained, proposed solutions will be provided to overcome the perceived problems. Through a review of the applicable legal norms, especially the misdemeanor and criminal procedures and sanctions they provide for non-compliance with the prescribed conditions for unhindered access for persons with disabilities, and based on the knowledge obtained, proposed solutions will be provided to overcome the identified problems. In this way, this paper will contribute to improving living conditions in the urban environment, will influence the ability of people with reduced mobility to function normally in society, and will contribute to ensuring equal rights for all members.
