ADA Compliance & Accessibility Solutions
Ensure Your Parking Lot Meets ADA Standards in Middle Tennessee
At TugSun Paving, we help businesses, HOAs, and commercial property owners in Clarksville, TN, and surrounding areas achieve ADA compliance for their parking lots, walkways, and access points. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires properties to provide accessible parking, ramps, and clear pathways for individuals with disabilities. Failure to comply can result in fines, lawsuits, and accessibility challenges for customers and visitors.
Our team ensures your pavement is compliant, safe, and accessible, so you can focus on running your business with confidence.
What Are the ADA Parking Lot Compliance Requirements?
ADA regulations specify clear requirements for parking lot accessibility. Some of the most common issues include:
✅ Insufficient Handicapped Parking Spaces
- Businesses must provide a minimum number of car-accessible and van-accessible parking spaces based on lot size.
- At least one van-accessible space is required, and its placement must be near the building entrance.
✅ Improper Parking Space Locations
- Accessible spaces must be as close as possible to an ADA-compliant entrance.
- No obstructions or high curbs should block the accessible route from parking to the building.
✅ Incorrectly Sized Parking Spaces
- Car-accessible spaces must be at least 96 inches wide with an adjacent 60-inch access aisle.
- Van-accessible spaces must be at least 132 inches wide (or 96 inches if the access aisle is expanded).
- Shared access aisles must be clearly marked to prevent unauthorized parking.
✅ Missing or Incorrect Signage & Pavement Markings
- Every ADA space must have a permanently mounted sign at a regulated height.
- Van-accessible spots require additional signage.
- Some local Tennessee laws require larger pavement markings for visibility.
✅ Non-Compliant Ramps & Walkways
- All sidewalks and ramps must meet slope and handrail requirements.
- Curb ramps must have a non-slip surface and detectable warning strips for visually impaired pedestrians.
