U.S. DOT SECRETARY PETE BUTTIGIEG EXPLAINS THE NEW RULE IN AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH UNITED SPINAL ASSOCIATION CORRESPONDENT STEVE WRIGHT
Last December, DOT awarded nearly $700 million through its All Stations Accessibility Program to retrofit old rail and subway stations, adding elevators, ramps, and other improvements. According to a DOT press release,
“The program, funded through the infrastructure law, is designed to improve the
accessibility of transit rail stations so everyone, including people who use
wheelchairs, push strollers, or cannot easily navigate stairs, can reliably
access the rail systems in their communities.”
