Aug 11, 2010: Wheelchair Ramps

xoxoxoBruce · 08-10-2010, 11:37 PM

Wheelchair ramps became the law here in the US, I would guess with the Americans with Disabilities Act, 20 years ago. But that didn't suddenly cause ramps to spring up like mushrooms, quite often they weren't required until some change was made requiring a building (remodeling) permit. Lately we've seen tons of curb cuts at intersections being made, with federal economic recovery funds.

But some people are bitter about having to do it...
