Accessible parking spaces aren’t about convenience—they’re about access.
For many people, these spaces provide the room and proximity needed to safely enter and
exit their vehicle and access a business independently.
When an accessible space is available, it helps remove one more barrier to participation.
Question: Did you know accessible parking spaces are designed around safety and
independence—not convenience?
