ODOT walkway standards meet or exceed minimum ADA requirements.
Some minor improvements can greatly improve accessibility.
Where sidewalks are directly adjacent to a roadway, they may follow the natural grade of the land. When constraints allow for only minimal sidewalks behind the curb, dipping the entire sidewalk at approaches keeps the cross-slope at a constant grade. This may be uncomfortable for pedestrians and may create drainage problems behind the sidewalk. Entire sidewalk dips at driveway F.4. Most recommended practices for sidewalk construction satisfy these requirements.
