ARCHITECTURAL AND TRANSPORTATION BARRIERS COMPLIANCE BOARD (ATBCB)

Proposed Rule Stage

370. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Accessibility Guidelines for 
Passenger Vessels

    Regulatory Plan: This entry is Seq. No. 74 in part II of this issue 
of the Federal Register.
    RIN: 3014-AA11

371. 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, pedestrian street crossings, pedestrian 
signals, and other facilities for pedestrian circulation and use 
constructed or altered in the public right-of-way by State or local 
governments are accessible to and usable by individuals with 
disabilities. The rulemaking in RIN 3014-AA41 that would establish 
accessibility guidelines for shared use paths that are designed for 
bicyclists and pedestrians and are used for transportation and 
recreation purposes is merged with this rulemaking. A second notice of 
proposed rulemaking (Second NPRM) would propose to add provisions for 
shared use paths to the accessibility guidelines for pedestrian 
facilities in the public right-of-way. 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 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.
