City of Irving Accessibility

Current Actions Being Taken by the City

Installing curb ramps
Repairing sidewalks
Continually evaluating new technologies to improve services to people with special needs

The City of Irving is committed to creating, promoting and maintaining an accessible community in conjunction with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. All community members should be able to enjoy the benefits of city programs, services and activities.

Accessibility enables everyone to attend and participate. Irving recognizes that access is not only a civic rights issue, but the city's social responsibility to uphold.

Completed Work

All Irving public sidewalks — more than 800 miles — have been surveyed. Many were installed before the ADA standard. The replacement process has started and will continue until completed.
More than 70 city public buildings have been inspected, and noncompliance has been documented. The Criminal Justice Center and Jack D. Huffman Community Building are the first two slated for repairs, which will begin this fall.
More than half of the city’s 80 public parks have been inspected and evaluated for compliance with accessibility standards.
More than 75% of the 212 signalized intersections have been evaluated for compliance.
