Summary:
This project provides for the repair and/or removal and replacement of sidewalk and sidewalk ramps throughout the City that are identified by the City Engineer or designee as not meeting Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements due to trip hazards, conditions, cross slopes, etc.
The Miscellaneous ADA Sidewalk Repair and Replacement Project provides funding for sidewalk ADA issues and/or citizen sidewalk complaints. This annual project allows the City of Olathe to pro-actively address known sidewalk issues, to respond more quickly to citizen sidewalk requests, and to improve transportation options for pedestrians and disabled populations throughout the City.
In its first year (2018), the City of Olathe contracted for the repair and/or removal and replacement of almost 30,500 square feet of sidewalk, 350 linear feet of curb and 37 ADA sidewalk ramps throughout the City of Olathe, through the Miscellaneous ADA Sidewalk Repair and Replacement Project.
This project was approved for continued $300,000 in annual funding within the 2019-2023 Capital Improvements Plan. Sidewalk work authorized under this project will begin in January 2019 and will be managed by the Street Maintenance Section of Public Works.
