About

Curb shift

Although there are a number of considerations when taking a curb shift into account, in this circumstance the amount of pavement space must be reduced and a curb shift must take place.

In order to accommodate the minimum requirements needed to reconstruct sidewalks that meet ADA standards, the sidewalk slope has to be extended into the current pavement layout. A curb shift is the only way to feasibly accommodate that.
