What is Bainbridge Island Doing to Increase Mobility?
The City of Bainbridge Island is in the process of developing an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan to guide when and where mobility improvements need to be made. City staff are conducting an inventory of current pedestrian facilities throughout the city, looking for gaps in and barriers to accessibility.
The development of a comprehensive ADA Transition Plan also requires feedback from community members just like you! In order to better understand your mobility experiences the city is conducting an online survey.
The Americans with Disabilities Act
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires an ADA Transition Plan from public entities having responsibility for, or authority over facilities, streets, roads, sidewalks and/or other areas meant for public use (collectively referred to as “facilities”). This Plan must describe how facilities will be transitioned to meet federal accessibility standards.
