20230920 Untangling Transportation–How much farther-Getting from Prowag to What it Offers. Originally Broadcasted September 20, 2023, on ACB Media 6 People concerned about safety and accessibility for pedestrians have been discussing the “Public Right of Way Accessibility Guidelines” (mercifully shortened to PROWAG) for more than a decade.

But with any long journey, there remain steps to be taken, and this month, we explored what’s next with Chris Bell, ACB Board Member and Sarah Presley, who provides staff support to the U.S. Access Board.
