City of Gloucester Enhances Beach Accessibility with New Mobi-mats and MobiChairs

Investing in Inclusive Spaces to Ensure Beach Access for All Residents and Visitors

The City of Gloucester is pleased to announce the installation of additional handicap accessible Mobi-mats and the acquisition of new MobiChairs to enhance beach accessibility for all residents and visitors.

The City purchased three additional Mobi-mats that will be distributed between Good Harbor Beach and Wingaersheek Beach. These mats will significantly improve access for individuals with mobility challenges, making it easier for everyone to navigate the sandy terrain.

In addition to the Mobi-mats, the City has also acquired four new MobiChairs, specially designed beach wheelchairs, to be made available at the major beaches.

The first of the new Mobi-mats for Good Harbor Beach will be installed the week before Memorial Day, just in time for the start of the summer season. The new Mobi-mats and wheelchairs have been funded through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds appropriated by Mayor Greg Verga.

Mayor Verga explained, “Our beaches are a cherished part of Gloucester, and it’s essential that everyone, regardless of physical ability, can access and enjoy them. These new Mobi-mats and MobiChairs are a significant step toward making our community more inclusive. I am proud of the progress we are making and grateful for the support provided by the ARPA funds.”

Sharing some good news from Minglewood. Another sure sign of summer…..

I was out on the water for the whale watch and had the opportunity to take some photos of Half Moon Beach from the water. A few days later, I also got some shots from land (including 2 intrepid plein air painters). Thought you might enjoy the perspectives.

Name a better way to tell someone you love them?
