I use a power wheelchair, and it is very difficult for me to navigate the route to school due to several very uneven sidewalks and curbs. My Mom and I took pictures of the worst places, and I'll send them block by block. This first one is of the curb/alley of the block I live on.
Uneven sidewalk near my house on W. 4th
This is one of the sidewalks on my route to school, the library, the grocery story. It is so uneven that I have a very hard time navigating it in my power chair.
This sidewalk is so uneven that I cannot navigate it safely with my power chair. Even if we are going to the WonderLab, we usually cross to the south side of the street for this block and then back to the north side again to continue on our way.
This curb is quite difficult to navigate in a power chair.
None of the sidewalks (where they even exist) on 17th 18th and 19th street between Dunn and walnut have curb drops. In addition, the sidewalks are completely unkempt and in places unusable. As a wheelchair user who works at City Hall, this poses a major threat to my wellbeing when trying to walk to work or elsewhere in the community.
