Every time I take a walk around Olympia I find myself wondering how the city avoids being sued or found non-compliant to the Americans with Disabilities Act. On neighborhood streets there are frequently no sidewalks at all and on major traffic corridors (4th Ave for example) there is significant root damage to the sidewalks such that they are impassable for those who use wheelchairs or walkers. Painting an obstruction orange doesn't remove the problem. And waiting decades to take reconstructive action only increases the odds of someone getting hurt, or worse.
