The Seattle Times submitted a number of reader questions about transportation related work around the city. Reader comment: “SDOT crews ripped out portions of curbs and sidewalks and replaced them, but did not replace them with ADA ramps.”
This is an example of an SDOT spot repair of a broken curb, similar to repairing a pothole. Installations of new curb ramps can be requested by all residents, and are prioritized based on multiple factors and reviewed on an ongoing basis.
