Parking in disabled parking space

    • How should disabled parking spaces be located in a parking lot?

      Under the ADA, disabled parking spaces must be located on the shortest route to an accessible entrance to the facility the parking lot serves, relative to other spaces in the same parking lot. In parking lots where spaces serve more than one entrance to a facility, disabled parking spaces must be dispersed between all of the accessible entrances.


    • How many types of disabled parking spaces are there?

      Yes, there are three different types of disabled parking spaces in America. The reason there are three types is so the disabled parking program can serve the widest possible group of disabled parking permit holders. The aim is for all disabilities and all vehicle types to be catered for.


    • How many accessible parking spaces are required?

      The rule of thumb is that for every six accessible parking spaces, one space must be van accessible. This means that a parking lot with 400 total spaces needs eight accessible spaces, and two of those eight spaces must be van accessible. Any disabled person can park in these spots, whether they arrive in a van or not.


    • How do accessible parking spaces differ from traditional parking spaces?

      Accessible parking spaces are different than traditional parking spaces. They have specific features that make it easier for people with disabilities to access programs, goods, or services. The ADA requires businesses, non-profits, and state/local governments to provide accessible parking spaces.
