A few changes to improve mobility at the Naperville Riverwalk have been added to the city’s docket thanks to a group of local masters students from North Central College.

Changes that will improve mobility at the Naperville Riverwalk have been added to the city’s docket this year thanks to a group of North Central College students. This semester, a class working on master’s degrees in occupational therapy took a practical approach to their studies by examining the ease of getting around different areas in Naperville — the Riverwalk included — for people with physical, sensory or cognitive issues.

Of students’ concerns, one of the biggest was that there is only one ramp to enter and exit the Riverwalk, meaning those using assistive devices or strollers have to turn around and walk the path again to exit. This an issue already on the city’s radar. Another accessible entry point is to be built on the Riverwalk’s west side next year as part of the city’s pending Eagle Street Gateway project.
