Feliz Paseos Universal Accessibility Park

Pima County, Arizona

SAGE is working diligently with Pima County Natural Resources, Parks Recreation to lead the movement of universally accessible trail design in the County. Feliz Paseos will be the first park in Pima County with a defined goal of creating a park that is accessible to people with varying physical abilities.

We have volunteered much of our time to assist the County and community groups to incorporate accessible wildlife viewing areas, shade ramadas, restrooms, and parking into the park.

Recently developed Accessibility Guidelines for Outdoor Developed Areas, as proposed by the US Access Board, are being used as the standard for the park's design. State of the art technology for Universal Trail Assessment is being used to develop plans and construct the accessible trail system.

Project Features:

• Trails with differing levels of difficulty
• Adherence to ADA Accessibility Guidelines for Outdoor Areas
• Wildlife viewing areas
• Shade ramadas
• Over 1.5 miles of trails on a 50 acre site
