California's transportation department, Caltrans, will spend $1.1 billion over 30 years to improve sidewalks under a plan submitted Tuesday to a federal judge. If approved, the plan would resolve two class actions that advocates for the disabled filed against Caltrans. The plaintiffs alleged, under the Americans with Disabilities Act, that Caltrans had discriminated against people with disabilities by denying them equal access to sidewalks and other pedestrian facilities.
