Question: Did you know accessible parking spaces are designed around safety and
independence—not convenience?

Litter and trash can pose serious barriers for people with disabilities. Small items can get caught in wheelchair wheels, service animals can be distracted or injured, and individuals who are blind or visually impaired can have difficulty detecting and avoiding trash, leading to accidents.
Lets BoldlyBeAware and keep walkways safe for everyone!
