Enjoying a hike, a bike ride, a walk, a run, or a roll along a scenic route is a healthy way to spend time. The next webinar in the U.S. Access Board's free monthly series will take place August 5 from 1:30 – 3:00 (CT) and will review the differences between accessible pedestrian trails and shared use paths. Access Board Accessibility Specialists Bill Botten and Juliet Shoultz will review the technical and scoping requirements in the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) Accessibility Standards for newly constructed or altered pedestrian trails on federal sites, as well as proposed supplementary provisions for shared use paths. They will also address frequently asked questions and common sources of confusion concerning accessible pedestrian trails and shared use paths.  

Visit www.accessibilityonline.org for more information or to register. All webinars include video remote interpreting (VRI) and real-time captioning. Questions can be submitted in advance of the session or can be posed during the live webinar. Webinar attendees can earn continuing education credits. The webinar series is hosted by the ADA National Network in cooperation with the Board. Archived copies of previous Board webinars are available on the site.
