Final Rule Stage

363. Accessibility Guidelines for Pedestrian Facilities in the Public 
Right-of-Way

    Legal Authority: 42 U.S.C. 12204, Americans With Disabilities Act; 
29 U.S.C. 792, Rehabilitation Act
    Abstract: This rulemaking would establish accessibility guidelines 
to ensure that sidewalks and pedestrian facilities in the public right-
of-way are accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. A 
Supplemental Notice of Proposed Rulemaking consolidated this rulemaking 
with RIN 3014-AA41; accessibility guidelines for shared use paths 
(which are multi-use paths designed primarily for use by bicyclists and 
pedestrians--including persons with disabilities--for transportation 
and recreation purposes). The U.S. Department of Justice, U.S. 
Department of Transportation, and other Federal agencies are expected 
to adopt the accessibility guidelines for pedestrian facilities in the 
public right-of-way and for shared use paths, as enforceable standards 
in separate rulemakings for the construction and alteration of 
facilities covered by the Americans With Disabilities Act, section 504 
of the Rehabilitation Act, and the Architectural Barriers Act.
