Sidewalk Closures Raise Access, Mobility Questions

Several thousand attendees are expected in downtown Traverse City Saturday for the annual Halloween Walk, where they’ll find smiling merchants handing out candy and creative costumes galore. They’ll also likely run into areas where city sidewalks are closed due to construction, which reroutes pedestrians abruptly – and for those with mobility and visual impairment issues, sometimes dangerously – away from clear pathways.
