Guest guest Posted October 17, 2003 Report Share Posted October 17, 2003 Rose, My sincerest apologies for the delay in this answer, you've probably long since found the chart about # of accessible parking spaces. This is from the ADA Title III regulations. When I copied the chart from the web-site the columns got thrown off, but it's one HP space for the first 25 spaces, 2 HP for 26-50 spaces, etc. http://www.usdoj.gov/crt/ada/reg3a.html#Anchor-Appendix-52467 (5) (a) If parking spaces are provided for self-parking by employees or visitors, or both, then accessible spaces complying with 4.6 shall be provided in each such parking area in conformance with the table below. Spaces required by the table need not be provided in the particular lot. They may be provided in a different location if equivalent or greater accessibility, in terms of distance from an accessible entrance, cost and convenience is ensured. Total Pkg in Lot - Required Minimum Number of Accessible Spaces 1 to 25 - 1 26 to 50 2 51 to 75 3 76 to 100 4 101 to 150 5 151 to 200 6 201 to 300 7 301 to 400 8 401 to 500 9 501 to 1000 2% of total 1001 and over 1 - 20 plus 1 for each 100 over 1000 ADA Question I am not sure if anyone on here will know this or not but does anyone happen to know the required ratio for the number of parking spaces per number of occupants/expected visitors. The reason I ask is that our University Annex is located in the downtown area of Providence, and the powers that be want to cut our already measly handicap spaces. Our Dean and Building Managers are trying to fight this, so they need to know if there is an ADA ratio or some type of ADA ruling that could help in this area. And since I am one of the more " vocal " students in this arena, I have been asked to see what I can discover. I am reviewing the ADA web site every chance I get but I am not sure exactly where to look, so I am trying this avenue as well. So, if anyone knows the ratio or knows where I can find this information, your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
