WE CAN’T AFFORD TO *NOT* MAKE OUR CITIES

MORE ACCESSIBLE FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) turned 33 on July 26. 

For a third of a century, this landmark civil rights legislation has made it possible for people with disabilities to access public spaces and participate in their communities, in ways they couldn't in the past. 

This has had a marked effect on our built environment and the way cities operate—in ways that benefit both people with disabilities and the general public, as a whole.

This legislation has significantly impacted our urban landscape and city functioning, enhancing accessibility for everyone, including initiatives like the E-Rickshaw.
