Public Right-of-Way Accessibility Guidelines (final rule 2023) + ADA standards as implemented in FDM and Standard Plans (curb ramps 522-002, detectable warnings, APS).

Verify current DOJ/USDOT adoption status of the PROWAG final rule.

Why: accessibility errors are non-negotiable review failures and legal exposure; every ramp, crosswalk, signal ped feature is checked.

When:

  • ramp design/review
  • cross slopes (≤2%)
  • running slopes
  • landing sizes
  • ped signal reach/APS
  • parking ADA counts & routes

Example questions:

  • max ramp running slope & counter slope?
  • required ADA stalls for 240-space lot and where do they go (access aisle, route)?

PROWAG final rule full text — the actual scoping and technical chapters (curb ramps, APS, crosswalks, on-street parking), which is what you cite in review comments, not the homepage. USDOT adopted PROWAG for transit stops Dec 2024 — the adoption-status question above is partly answered there.
