We are improving access to Washington County roads with an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan.

An ADA Transition Plan for access in the public right-of-way identifies needed improvements for access, the funding and schedule to address those needs, and establishes a process for the public to request accommodation.
We are creating this plan in phases. Each phase includes research about the issue, a plan to remediate the issues, and implementation of of the plan. We will have opportunities for public comment on each phase.
- Phase I: Curb Ramps
- Open House: Sept. 27-Oct. 27, 2024
- Presentation at Board Work Session: Dec. 2, 2024
- Proposed adoption: Feb. 4, 2025
- Phase II: Pedestrian push buttons
- Phase III: Parks and park facilities
- Phase IV: Sidewalks
Policy:
Washington County has implemented Policy 211 to address access for people with disabilities.
