  • 145 Orange St New Haven, CT, 06510, USA - 770 Chapel Big

    Pitkin Plaza in it's entirety violates ADA 302.1 General. Floor and ground surfaces shall be stable, firm, and slip resistant and shall comply with 302 and these loose blocks are undeniably generally hazardous.

    Unlike other parks, the city invites thousands of people to attend events - at night, when it's dark. What is inevitable is inevitable.

  • 330-398 St John St New Haven, CT, 06511, USA - Wooster Square
    I'm not sure why this needs to be explained. It is incredibly irresponsible and dangerous to install a tactile feedback pad on a curb ramps and leave the other side of the crosswalk with no curb ramp. How would someone in a wheelchair get over this curb? What does a visually impaired pedestrian do after they cross the street and find that there's a curb there? When they travel back in the opposite direction, how do they know that they're entering a roadway?
  • 920 State St New Haven, Connecticut, 06511 - Bishop-Hine
    resident is reporting raised bricks and sidewalks on the right side of the townhouses in between 920 state st and the tattoo parlor next door their is a small entryway please inspect the sidewalk
  • 219 Bradley St New Haven, CT, 06510, USA - East Rock

    This was reported in August of 2019 and has been ignored since. Federal law requires that New Haven Academy be accessible by at least one accessible parking space.. All three reserved parking spaces across the street from this Public School have had ADA violations at them for many years.

    The ADA does not specifically require that parking spaces that are reserved for people with disabilities be accessible to the people for whom they are reserved. It assumes that a basic understanding of the purpose of these parking spaces exists - and it requires that ground surfaces be "stable, firm, and slip resistant" and it defines the numerous trip hazards that exist at the junctions of the slate slabs.

  • 191 Church St New Haven, CT, 06510, USA - Town_Green
    This is the northeast corner of the New Haven Green, 1/2 block north of New Haven City Hall. What the ADA defines as a trip hazard is, in fact a trip hazard. The vertical level change at this curb ramp is about twice what it allowed. It is noteworthy that this is on the path of travel from public transportation stops to the Courthouse across the street.
  • 60-198 Laurel Rd New Haven, CT, 06515, USA - Westville
    This wide, curving, pot hole-filled, one-way road that has broken or entirely lacks sidewalks on parts of both sides is designed to encourage speeding drivers and make it dangerous for people walking or using micromobility vehicles. Redesign is desperately needed. Think smooth sidewalks that don’t flood, (contraflow) micromobility lanes, etc. Might be worth limiting car access to residents.
  • 59-79 Crescent St New Haven, CT, 06511, USA - Dixwell

    Hillhouse High School. As you can see from colors of the sidewalk, the City of New Haven violated 28 CFR 35.151 "The obligation to provide an accessible path of travel may not be evaded by performing a series of small alterations to the area served by a single path of travel if those alterations could have been performed as a single undertaking." by repairing small sections of this path of travel near a Public School.

    The city is ostensibly engaged in the The Safe Routes to School program. which "seeks to create a 'safety trail' within a 1/4-mile corridor of each public school in the City." Photos of the 'Safety Trail left behind by the failure to comply with Federal law follow.

  • 85 Edgewood Ave New Haven, CT, 06511, USA - Dwight
    Brick sidewalk in disrepair
  • 200 Orange St New Haven, CT, 06510, USA - Town_Green

    It appears that the ADA violations on the access ramp to the polling place for Ward 7 in the Town Hall of Records building have been removed from see,click,fix.

    Please explain.

  • Wilbur Cross Athletic Complex - East Rock
    The gated entrances to the athletic field and track area were locked close. The only open entrance is too narrow and has sharp turns.
  • 60 Goffe Terrace New Haven, CT 06511, USA - Beaver Hills
    across the street from 60 Goffe Terrace.
  • Edgewood Ave & Pendleton St New Haven, CT, 06511, USA - Edgewood
    The sidewalk at the northwest corner of the intersection between Edgewood and Pendleton is not ground down, forcing wheelchair users into the street and off the sidewalk while making their way into the park.
