BUILD Expo 2024,\u00a0<\/b>Steven will present a presentation titled<b>\u00a0\u201c<\/b>Accessible Design and Inclusive City Centers: Understanding the Public Right of Way rule\u201d.<\/p><p aria-hidden=\"true\">This bespoke presentation was formulated in response to the\u00a0news that in August 2023, the Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board issued its final rule that sets out minimum guidelines for the accessibility of pedestrian facilities in the public right-of-way.<\/p><p aria-hidden=\"true\">These guidelines will ensure that facilities used by pedestrians, such as sidewalks and crosswalks, constructed or altered in the public right-of-way by Federal, state, and local Governments are readily accessible to and usable by pedestrians with disabilities. It has been a long time coming since the introduction of the Americans with Disabilities (ADA) Act of 1990.<\/p><p aria-hidden=\"true\">Right of way is an essential consideration for any development \u2013 how people with disabilities can access and interact with the building or services. This session will focus on the implications of the final rule both for Governments and Architects, when and how should access be developed, the key elements required for accessible sidewalks and crosswalks and action to take during temporary construction. \u00a0It will be led by Direct Access Consultancy LLC \u2013 a team of people with disabilities undertaking public right-of-way assessments for Governments.<\/p><p aria-hidden=\"true\">Limited free tickets to the Expo are available now via our partner link;
