Thanks for installing the missing sidewalk, but the handicap curbing is still missing on both sides of the street. This is an access road to what looks like to a city water pumping station. Do the same rules not apply for ADA compliance pertaining to this curbing?
I do appreciate the sidewalk.
Good afternoon Rick! There were many mistakes with the curbing when it was designed. Yes, the same rules do apply but we are currently waiting for the street to be placed on the resurfacing list for the curbing to be brought up to ADA compliance. In order to put these handicap ramps in their proper places, the entire intersection would need to be reworked and it would be a massive, multiple week job. Until that time, we have been able to do what we can with the incorrectly placed curbs. Thank you for your understanding, if you would like to discuss this further, please call us at (256) 883-3944.
