6. Transition Plan Schedules 6.1 Initial Schedule for Curb Ramps and Accessible Pedestrian Signals Title II of the ADA specifically requires a schedule for elimination of barriers to accessibility due to curb ramps. This current Plan schedule primarily focuses on sidewalk (curb) ramps and pedestrian signals. Based on the inventory of the ramps, 12,392 ramps do not meet the guidelines described in the 2011 NPRM. Of the ramps that do not meet the 2011 NPRM guidelines, 4,080 are located in Priority 1 areas and 3,569 are located in Priority 2 areas. This inventory data needs additional refinement to incorporate: Maximum extent feasible design Technical limitations of data collection equipment (level of accuracy) Regarding pedestrian signals, 228 signalized intersections do not have accessible pedestrian signal devices within the Urban Growth Boundary. Of the signalized intersections without accessible devices, 131 are located in Priority 1 areas and 83 are located in Priority 2 areas. The City of Eugene is committed to a reasonable and responsible schedule to bring the remaining curbs and signalized intersections into ADA compliance. Most of this work will take place as alterations included in capital projects. The current Capital Improvement Program (CIP) (FY 16 — 21) identifies several sources of funding for capital projects for the next five year period. The following capital projects and programs identified in the CIP (FY 16 -21) are potential sources for curb ramp and APS alterations and construction: • Neighborhood Transportation Livability • Traffic Operations Improvement Program • Traffic Signal Improvements and Upgrades • Pavement Preservation Program • Pavement Preservation Program —Transportation Bonds • Amazon Active Transportation Corridor Project • Northeast Livable Streets Project • Services for New Development/Grant Matching Funds Transportation As discussed in Section 4, above, regarding methods for barrier removal, in addition to the capital program identified, other sources for curb ramp and,APS alterations and construction are private development and maintenance activities. Based on this variety of sources, the following schedules were developed for curb ramps and APS: City of Eugene Transition Plan for Accessibility in the Public Rights -of -Way Page 9 Estimated # of Estimated # of APS Time Period Curb Ramps added to intersections per year per year 2015 —2021 350 6 2021 — 2053 200 6 2053 —2071 200 0 Total Ramps 12,392 - (2015 — 2071) Total APS - 228 City of Eugene Transition Plan for Accessibility in the Public Rights -of -Way Page 9
