ADA Parking Features

ADA Accessible Parking Spaces

 

Access Aisles

Accessible parking spaces must have access aisles. Access aisles provide a designated area for people who use wheelchairs or other mobility devices to get in and out of their car or van. Mobility devices allow people with disabilities to move about independently. They include walkers, canes, crutches, braces, manual or power wheelchairs, Segways, and electric scooters.


Access aisles must be:

  • Marked (to discourage drivers from parking in them)
  • The same length as the space
  • Level with the parking space


Two accessible parking spaces can share an access aisle with the access aisle between the two parking spaces (except in angled parking).

An access aisle can be placed on either side of the parking space (except in angled parking where it must be located on the passenger side of the parking space).

Are you out of compliance? We can help!

We offer a comprehensive range of services that includes updating ADA stalls for code compliance. We offer everything from signage to re-sloping stalls with new pavement. 

 

Let's Talk

Is your parking lot ADA compliant?

 "When state or local governments, businesses and non-profit organizations provide parking lots or garages, accessible parking spaces complying with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) must be provided." (“Accessible Parking Spaces.” ADA.Gov, www.ada.gov/topics/parking/.)
