Improvements will include upgraded sidewalk curb ramps, added detectable warning surfaces and upgrades to associated pedestrian signals and/or pushbuttons
VANCOUVER — Clark County Public Works is beginning construction to upgrade pedestrian facilities on county roads. This work is part of the road preservation program and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) improvements project. Improvements will include upgraded sidewalk curb ramps, added detectable warning surfaces and upgrades to associated pedestrian signals and/or pushbuttons.
Construction will begin in late January and be completed by the first week of June. Construction activities will occur between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on weekdays.
For the safety of workers and the public, traffic lanes and/or sidewalks may be closed near work sites. Travelers will be directed around the closures.
Residents can view interactive maps of project locations on our website at clark.wa.gov/public-works/ada-compliance.
For information about road and park projects, closures, opportunities for community input, and more, residents can follow Public Works on X (formerly known as Twitter), Facebook and Instagram and view information on Nextdoor.

Why add a crosswalk to a Hwy in the country when you could be patching potholes and adding these crosswalks and sidewalks in the city. This is a misappropriation of funds.
