OKU-Accessible Public Buildings Programme
Putrajaya's systematic programme ensuring that public buildings across the city are fully accessible to persons with special needs (OKU) — providing inclusive access features including drop-off zones, wheelchair ramps, accessible toilets, lifts, prayer rooms, and public transport connectivity for all 55 public buildings.
Overview
Putrajaya’s OKU-Accessible Public Buildings Programme is a structured, data-driven initiative by Perbadanan Putrajaya (PPj) to ensure that all public buildings across the Federal Territory are designed, built, and maintained to be fully accessible by persons with special needs (OKU — Orang Kurang Upaya). Operating under the smart city indicator framework as K4 (Indicator 22), this programme documents, audits, and continuously improves accessibility features across Putrajaya’s 55 public buildings — producing a GPS-tagged, photographic-evidenced registry for smart city rating compliance.
As Malaysia’s planned federal administrative capital, Putrajaya bears a unique responsibility to model inclusive urban design for the rest of the country. The programme aligns directly with the Akta Orang Kurang Upaya 2008 (Akta 685) and MS 1184:2014 (Universal Design) — ensuring that every ministry, public facility, mosque, and open square within Putrajaya’s precinct boundaries is accessible to wheelchair users, the visually impaired, hearing-impaired individuals, and other OKU categories.
2025 Assessment — OKU-Accessible Buildings
For the 2025 assessment year, 31 public buildings in Putrajaya were confirmed as accessible by persons with special needs — representing a 56.4% accessibility rate across the city’s total 55 public buildings:
