Princeton Measures Up in Accessibility

Princeton received $15,000 from Measuring Up to install electric doors and ramps at key community buildings; improve the sidewalk outside a seniors' facility; and to renovate washrooms in several downtown venues to make them accessible for people with disabilities.

Measuring Up helps communities assess and improve how accessible and inclusive they are for people with disabilities, seniors and others with similar needs. The program includes a fund, established by the Province of British Columbia, which offers grants to communities to complete accessibility-related projects.
