    Assessing bus stops for accessibility

    in General Discussion

    Hi Folks,

    Part of my job as a Travel Trainer is to check our bus stops for accessibility. The ADA requirements state that bus stops must have a firm,stable and slip resistant surface and they need to have a minimum clear length of 96 in and minimum clear width of 60 in. I have posted a couple of pictures of stops that have a nice sidewalk that is 5 to 6 feet wide and is bordered by grass. If you include the grass, there is the correct amount of free space but I do not think the grass would be considered firm, stable or slip resistant. I am interested in knowing what other peoples thoughts might be on the accessibility of these stops. Thanks.
