380 Orange St New Haven, CT, 06511, USA - DowntownPleas refer this to the Director of Disability Services.
Someone has apparently replaced a "small section" of a ground surface that is not "firm, stable and slip-resistant" (on a "path for travel" from what Elm City Communities has deemed to be an accessible Public Housing facility to a Public Seating Area in front of a Public School) with a ground surface that is not "firm, stable and slip-resistant."

191 Church St New Haven, CT, 06510, USA - Town_GreenThis 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. -
59-79 Crescent St New Haven, CT, 06511, USA - DixwellHillhouse 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.

Sidewalks and Curb damageAcknowledged401 Humphrey St New Haven, CT, 06511, USA - Bishop-HineThe sidewalk needs to be widened in this short stretch. It is too narrow, does not match the width of the other sidewalk strips, and is not ADA-compliant (handicap accessible).
[Ideally, the damage to the broader part of the sidewalk from tree removal also needs to be fixed.] -

Drainage RequestAcknowledgedChapel St & Orange St New Haven, CT, 06510, USA - 770 Chapel BigBad damage to the curb. It would be hard for somebody in a wheelchair to surmount this curb. -
219 Bradley St New Haven, CT, 06510, USA - East RockThis 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.

71-97 York St New Haven, CT, 06511, USA - Town_GreenThis gentleman is riding on York St' to get around this trip hazard at the tree near the entrance to Walgreens. This is an access route to the hospital a couple of blocks south.
The odd thing about this is that the tree doesn't deem to be old enough to have lifted it this far above level,
