Parking meters have been removed from accessible parking spaces, a rubber floor has been placed at Margaret Bowater Park, a new accessible playground at J.J.Curling, and more accessible picnic tables at the park and the city’s green roof.
Corner Brook is making a lot of accessibility improvements that are really starting to show. During Monday night ‘s council meeting, Deputy Mayor Linda Chaisson says the committee met late last month, to talk about initiatives over the past 6 years since they started. She says parking meters have been removed from accessible parking spaces, a rubber floor has been placed at Margaret Bowater Park, a new accessible playground at J.J.Curling, and more accessible picnic tables at the park and the city’s green roof. Chaisson says they also established a new policy for people with disabilities. She says this is big for Corner Brook and it means if someone with a disability can’t attend an event on their own, a friend can go with them and get in free. Chaisson says they also have plans to do a transit accessibility study.
