Accessibile Rights-of-Way: Sidewalks, Street Crossings and Other Pedestrian Facilities. A Design Guide
This design guide was developed by the U.S. Architectural and Transportation Barriers Compliance Board (the Access Board) in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT)/Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to assist public works and transportation agencies covered by title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in designing and constructing public sidewalks and street crossings. The recommendations in this publication may also be applied to shared-use paths that occupy a public right-of-way. State and local transportation engineers, planners, landscape architects, civil engineers, and others who design pedestrian facilities will also find useful guidance here for improving existing public pedestrian circulation networks to be more usable by pedestrians who have disabilities. This design guide consists of two parts. Part I contains an overview of ADA title II obligations, particularly as they affect new construction and alterations in the public right-of-way. Part II contains best practices recommendations--and the rationale behind them--for the design, construction, alteration, and retrofit of public pedestrian facilities.
