To Whom It May Concern:

I support the recommendations set forth in the PROWAC report, concerning Accessible Pedestrian Signals and Detectable Warning Devices. I urge you to implement these recommendations into your rules.

I believe that this will assist blind/visually impaired pedestrian's in their pursuit of self reliance and independence: as a result, they will become more productive citizen's. This barrier has confronted the blind/visually impaired for too long. However more importantly, it will save many unnecessary injuries or even unfortunate deaths.

Thank you for your time and consideration concerning this extremely urgent issue.
