Colville
Colville has a big investment in ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) sidewalk corners, yet many of the sidewalks are not ADA compliant or are too narrow, too rough, or impassable for wheelchairs. So the next time you see a wheelchair going down the street, it probably is out of necessity, not because they want to race the cars. And when you actually see a wheelchair edged up to the curb facing the crosswalk at an ADA ramp, stop and let them cross; they are not sitting there just to enjoy the scenery (that applies to non-handicapped walkers also). Please use the crosswalk signals; that’s what they are for.
