The City of Milwaukee is currently working to improve accessibility of the RiverWalk system. The following enhancements will be made according to an agreement between the City, County and RiverWalk Business Improvement District (BID):
Construct and install ramps, walkways, or lifts in nine locations to ensure
the RiverWalk is readily accessible and usable by people with mobility
disabilities
Modify, replace, or install handrails in appropriate locations
Modify built-up curb ramps by grinding down the surface in two locations
Remove existing ramps and install new gangways to floating docks in three
locations
The City, County and the BID are working with PACE Architects and Pierce Engineers to ensure accessibility issues are addressed in the most effective manner possible.
