Since the early 1980’s, the City of San Antonio has been active in eliminating architectural barriers and in creating wheelchair accessibility to and along the RiverWalk. The City has improved more than 50 locations during these two decades, generating new ramps, pathways and, with the help of private businesses, new elevators.
Through the
joint efforts of the Planning,
Public Works and Parks Departments,
the City continues with improvements that fulfill both the
spirit and the intent of the Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA).
The challenge is to provide more
access while maintaining the unique
character of the RiverWalk. The
City intends to meet this challenge
and, with community support,
make the RiverWalk continually
more accessible and usable
to all people.
