The ADA Compliance Process

At U.S. Pavement, we understand that ADA parking lot compliance involves a structured process. From assessing your existing lot to making necessary adjustments and maintaining compliance, we’ve got you covered every step of the way.

Understand ADA Regulations

Our team is highly knowledgeable about both federal ADA standards and Massachusetts-specific regulations, and can keep your parking lot compliant with all legal requirements.

Conduct a Site Assessment

We begin by evaluating your current parking lot layout to identify areas that may require modifications to meet ADA standards, including space dimensions, signage placement, and ramp installation.

Implement Regulatory Steps

After the assessment, we implement the necessary changes. This can include repaving, adding signage, updating markings, installing ramps, and making sure all elements are accessible and compliant.

ADA Space Requirements

The ADA has specific guidelines about the number of accessible parking spaces required based on the total number of spaces in a parking lot. These requirements are designed to provide enough ADA parking for those who need it.

For example, a parking lot with up to 50 spaces must have at least two accessible spaces. As the lot size increases, so does the number of required accessible spaces. These spaces must be clearly marked with the appropriate signage and must meet specific size requirements. Proper space dimensions and placement are key to maintaining compliance.

Common ADA Violations for Parking Lots

If your parking lot does not comply with ADA requirements, you could face legal violations. Non-compliant parking lots may result in costly fines and, more importantly, poor accessibility for customers. Below are some of the most common ADA violations and tips on how to avoid them.

Non-Compliant Signage

Signage is one of the easiest areas to overlook, but it is crucial for ADA parking lot compliance. Accessible parking spaces must be clearly marked with the proper signage that is easy to read and understand. Failing to properly display these signs can result in ADA violations.

Insufficient Number of Spaces

The number of accessible spaces must be proportional to the total number of parking spaces in your lot. For instance, a parking lot with more than 100 spaces will require more than just a few accessible spaces. Regularly check your parking lot so that it meets these requirements.

Incorrect Dimensions

Accessible parking spaces must meet specific size requirements. This includes the width of the space and the adjacent access aisle. Violating these dimensional requirements can lead to fines and accessibility issues for your customers.

Improper Slopes

One of the most common mistakes is improper slope angles for ramps and parking spaces. The slope of accessible spaces and ramps must not exceed specific limits to ensure safe access, including for wheelchair users or other mobility device users.

Obstructed Paths to Entrances

There should be no barriers or obstructions between the accessible parking spaces and the building entrances. Clear, direct pathways must be maintained so that individuals with disabilities can easily access the facility.
