We would like to invite you all to go on th is walk with us\, as the City has many issues regarding our sidewalks Uptow n.\n\nThis year's event will take place on Friday\, April 19\, starting at Baker Center across from Alden Library at 11:30 a.m.\, walking up and down Court Street and finishing at Howard Park (the Corner of College and Union Streets) at 12:15 p.m. where there will be refreshments and pizza provided. \n\nThis particular year\, the Commission will be highlighting accessibilit y and inaccessibility in Uptown Athens\, focusing on recent improvements an d continued work that needs done on crosswalks\, sidewalks\, crossing signa ls\, building entrances\, and curb cuts. We are focusing on these areas bec ause there will be a large streetscaping project in 2024 and 2025 where sid ewalks and crosswalks will be completely redone. If buildings currently hav e a step or two at their entrance\, the sidewalk can be modified to allow f or a step-free entrance. \n\nWe will be stopping by businesses to inform th em of how they can become more accessible during this large project. \n\nAt Howard Park\, with our co-host the Ohio University's Center for Diversity and Inclusion\, we will hear speeches about improving the City of Athens' a ccessibility and inclusion while celebrating strides the City has made over the years.
