Public comment sought on pedestrian ramps in the Treasure Valley
BOISE - The Idaho Transportation Department is holding two public meetings the week of August 24 as part of an ongoing effort to develop a transition plan for pedestrian curb ramps in the public right-of-way.
The transition plan, which is required by the Americans with Disabilities Act, will identify and prioritize needed ADA improvements along state roadways across Idaho. As part of this effort, public meetings are being held in Boise and Nampa to collect comment on the priority of needed ADA improvements in the Boise and Nampa areas. The first public meeting will be Tuesday, Aug. 25, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Boise Public Library, 715 South Capitol Boulevard, in Boise. A short presentation will be given at 6 p.m.
On Thursday, Aug. 27, a second public meeting will be held in Nampa to collect public comment on the priority of needed ADA improvements in the Nampa area. The open house will be from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Nampa Civic Center, 311 3rd Street South. A short presentation will be given at 6 p.m.
