Step and walkway accessibility questions
For an entry or walkway, explain who needs to use it and how the levels connect. A landing, steps and an adjoining path may need to be considered together.
Do not try to certify an accessible or code-compliant design using rough measurements. A qualified project team should review the actual geometry, drainage and applicable requirements.
- Describe mobility or access needs without making a medical disclosure.
- Photograph the overall entry and connections safely.
- Ask who is responsible for qualified design and any required review.
Use the official area reference
Association boundaries and informal place names can differ. An association reference does not certify a property boundary, service territory, historic status, soil condition or flood designation.
