## Rehabilitation of Sidewalks with Universal Design Pending for Next Administration
Gina Arana has introduced about 36 initiatives aimed at the construction and remodeling of streets. However, only 15 have been approved during the current administration led by Montserrat Caballero Ramírez. A key proposal focusing on rehabilitating and adapting sidewalks with a universal design for individuals with motor or visual disabilities remains unaddressed and will be deferred to the next administration, as highlighted by Tijuana City Councilor Gina Arana Cruz.
Arana emphasized that although numerous initiatives were presented, only a select few received unanimous approval. One critical initiative that awaits action involves the rehabilitation of sidewalks, a plan developed in collaboration with the Mobility Council. Despite its significance, the initiative for improved mobility for disabled citizens and the elderly did not advance.
Arana expresses hope that the upcoming administration under president-elect Ismael Burgueño will prioritize this pending matter. She explained that the initiative was submitted to the city council but failed to gain traction, marking it as a priority for future attention. The proposal aligns with the new General Mobility Law and addresses the vital needs of the community.
The initiative was not listed as a high-priority topic for discussion in the city council’s sessions. According to Arana, this decision falls under the Sustainable Mobility Secretariat’s responsibilities. Despite the regulatory framework guiding the listing of initiatives in council sessions, there are uncertainties if such proposals will be prioritized without strong backing.
Arana underscores the importance of not abandoning this project due to its compliance with the new General Mobility Law and its necessity for the public. Following up on the matter, Arana remains optimistic that the next administration will take the appropriate steps to address these essential mobility issues.
