摘要: |
This document is a handbook that will help architects, engineers, and transit system managers to understand and follow the Federal Government regulations contained in the Final Rule, 49 CFR Part 37, which describes the requirements for transportation facilities to be accessible to persons with disabilities. This handbook explains what is required by the regulations in language that is easy to understand and includes a large number of illustrations which further clarify the requirements for accessibility. The major areas of accessibility addressed are transit facilities and the ADA, facility site and entrances, interior elements, and waiting and boarding areas. Included in this handbook are facilities accessibility checklists which ask numerous questions about facilities and vehicle requirements. Using the checklists, anyone assessing the accessibility of a facility can answer the questions and use the responses to determine where accessible features need to be added or improved. This handbook is a companion to the Final Rule and is a reference source for questions about transit facility accessibility. |
