The City of Milwaukee is currently working to
improve accessibility of the RiverWalk system. The
following enhancements will be made according to an agreement between the City,
County and RiverWalk Business Improvement District (BID):
|
Construct and install ramps, walkways, or
lifts in nine locations to ensure
the RiverWalk is readily accessible
and usable by people with mobility
disabilities |
|
 |
|
Modify, replace, or install handrails in
appropriate locations |
|
 |
|
Modify built-up curb ramps by grinding down
the surface in two locations |
|
 |
|
Remove existing ramps and install new
gangways to floating docks in three
locations |
The City, County and the BID are working with
PACE Architects and Pierce Engineers to ensure accessibility issues are
addressed in the most effective manner possible.
