Dear Access Board:

My experience with audible signals and detectable warnings has been a frustrating and difficult one. As a blind person traveling with a white cane I listen to the flow of the traffic. With the audible noise of these signals I found it extremely difficult to hear the flow of the traffic.

Also, detectable warnings at every curb seem to me a totally ridiculous expense of taxpayers' money. They are not only not needed but not wanted.

Sincerely,

Joy Stigile
