What is the ADA Transition Plan for Facilities in the Public Right-of-Way?
The Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) went into effect on January 26, 1992. ADA requires that all facilities constructed after this date are readily accessible and usable by persons with disabilities.

The City of Auburn Transportation division adopted the City’s first ADA Transition Plan for facilities in the public right-of-way. This document will guide the process to reach full compliance with the ADA requirements for facilities in the public right-of-way.

The City of Auburn’s Draft ADA Transition Plan includes the following elements:

• Overview and Background
• Self-Evaluation
• Policies and Procedures

Part of this effort included a public comment period, with the draft plan available for review and comments.  

In June 2020, City Council adopted new policies to meet the requirements of the ADA via Resolution No. 5514.

The ADA transition plan will be updated regularly to reflect new data and the progress towards full ADA compliance. Public comments are accepted and will be considered during the updates.
