VENTURA : City Plans Ramp for Disabled at Beach
Ventura City officials met Thursday to begin planning construction of a ramp at Marina Cove Beach so that disabled people with wheelchairs can travel from the parking lot to the water.
The $20,000 ramp, which will be the first of its kind in the county, will be constructed and ready in about a month, said Don Marquardt, the city’s landscape architect.
The ramp is funded by city, state and private donations.
The polyethylene plastic structure will be about 260 feet long and wide enough to accommodate wheelchairs, Marquardt said.
