APBP Professional Development Webinars

 
ADA Transition Plans
Wednesday, March 17 • 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. EST
 
 
Transportation facilities for pedestrians must meet the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act, yet many jurisdictions have not complied with the direction from ADA Title II to create and implement a transition plan for addressing deficiencies in our public infrastructure.
 
APBP's March 2010 webinar will bring together presenters from FHWA and state and local jurisdictions to answer these questions:
• What, exactly, is a transition plan?
• Who needs to do one, and why?
• When does it need to be done, and how often updated?
• What are the relevant federal standards and guidance?
• What is the state's role?

Participants will learn the basics of creating and institutionalizing a transition plan and will consider examples of facility inventories, policies, and cost sharing between jurisdictions. Presenters include Lisa MacPhee, Federal Highway Administration; Franz Loewenherz, City of Bellevue, Wash.; and Craig Williams, AICP.

 
APBP has applied for one CM credit from the AICP for this webinar. A certificate of attendance for those wanting to claim Professional Development Hours will be available.
