Construction Site Access: It’s Important for Everyone!

Seattle is one of the fastest growing cities in the nation. And with more people comes more construction to support our expanding city. As we continue through the #SeattleSqueeze, public and private infrastructure projects continue to impact how we get around, especially those with disabilities. With many of these projects directly affecting our streets and sidewalks, it’s important that those who are working on these projects maintain access for people who are traveling through the area. We teamed up with the Seattle Department of Transportation to create a video on the importance of maintaining a safe space for people to travel through construction sites.
