Welcome to the City of Berwyn Accessibility Improvements Engagement Platform. The goal of this project was to improve safety and accessibility for everyone who uses our sidewalks, including people with disabilities, and make our sidewalks and pedestrian facilities fully accessible to all individuals. Our aim was to develop a comprehensive Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) public right-of-way (PROW) transition plan that ensures that the transportation infrastructure, services, and programs within our municipality are fully accessible for all residents.
The final plan can be accessed on the City of Berwyn's website, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan | Berwyn, IL. The website includes other valuable information including contact information for the city's ADA Coordinator and an online grievance procedure form.

We want to gain a better understanding of the challenges pedestrians face when walking around the City of Berwyn.
Are there certain intersections that you don't feel safe crossing?
Are there intersections where you think new street crossing need to be added?
Is there a block in the city where the existing condition of the sidewalk can be dangerous to pedestrians?
