Engineering Criteria Manual (ECM) Changes: ADA Changes
El Paso County has partnered with Meeting the Challenge to review the Draft ADA Transportation Transition Plan and compare to the current 2010 ADA standards. This collaboration will result in updates to the ECM. The timeline for reviewing these changes is compressed with request for approval being submitted to the BOCC in July 2020. EPC is considering a “Transition Period” for these changes so developers don’t have to redesign communities that are already under way. EPC has secured 2 million in federal funding to update their infrastructure once the changes are approved.
