Bring the corner curb ramp up to ADA grade near Roeding Elementary School

The safe-routes walk flagged the corner ramp nearest the school's main crossing as out of ADA/PROWAG slope spec — exactly where wheelchair-using students and parents with strollers cross every school day. Standard: undefined Proof: slope survey + permit + before/after photos + inspection pass + GPS Method (undefined): 1. Survey the existing ramp slope, cross-slope and landing against ADA/PROWAG R304 and photograph as found. 2. Saw-cut and remove the non-compliant ramp section. 3. Form and pour a compliant ramp with correct slope, landing and detectable warning surface per the permit plan. 4. Cure, inspect against the AHJ checklist, and photograph the finished, compliant ramp. Done when: slope survey + permit + before/after photos + inspection pass + GPS

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 240–600 minutes. Method of record: Curb ramp repair/retrofit to ADA + PROWAG R304 (slope, landing, detectable warning surface), under municipal right-of-way permit — trained crew with wet-cut dust controls; assess→repair→verify

Bring

• right-of-way permit + cones/barricades + pedestrian detour signage
• smart level / digital inclinometer + tape measure
• concrete tools + detectable warning surface (truncated dome) panel per city standard
• wet-cut saw with water feed (dust control)

Steps

1. 1. ASSESS: measure the existing ramp against PROWAG R304 (running slope ≤8.3%, cross-slope ≤2%, landing, flush transition, detectable warning) and photograph each failure; confirm permit + utility locates before cutting.
2. 2. Set up cones/barricades and a safe pedestrian detour outside the work zone.
3. 3. Remove the failed ramp section with wet-cut dust controls; form and place the corrected ramp geometry per the city standard drawing.
4. 4. Set the detectable warning surface (truncated domes) aligned and embedded per spec; finish transitions flush with the gutter.
5. 5. VERIFY: re-measure every R304 dimension with the smart level, photograph readings + before/after from matching vantage, water-test the gutter flow line, and close out the permit.

If it does not match the plan

• No permit or no utility locate -> STOP: do not cut.
• Cutting without water-fed dust control -> STOP (respirable silica).
• Geometry cannot meet R304 within the existing footprint -> document and route to the city's ADA transition-plan engineer instead of pouring a non-compliant ramp.

What counts as done

• Measured running slope ≤8.3% and cross-slope ≤2% with level photos
• Detectable warning surface installed per standard (alignment + embed photos)
• Flush gutter transition verified (no lip >1/4 inch; water flows along the gutter line)
• Before/after photos + permit close-out reference

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
