193. 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

shared use paths (which are multi-use 

paths designed primarily for use by 

bicyclists and pedestrians—including

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 rightof-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.
