What this tracks
This dataset records measurements and compliance status of narrow sidewalks and pathways in Nevada that may not meet ADA accessibility standards.
Why it matters to you
If you use a wheelchair, walker, or stroller, this data tells you which sidewalks in Nevada might be too narrow (under 36 inches wide) to navigate safely. Business owners can check if their storefront’s sidewalk access meets ADA requirements before making accessibility upgrades. Residents can identify problematic routes to avoid when planning daily walks or commutes.
How to read this data
WidthInches — The actual width of the pathway (e.g., “38.0” means 38 inches wide; ADA requires at least 36 inches).
Impediment — Codes like “PP” (permanent obstruction) that explain why a path is narrow.
Confirmed — Whether the measurement has been verified (e.g., “Yes” means the data is reliable).
