On September 3, the U.S. Access Board published a notice of proposed rulemaking to update the accessibility guidelines for buildings and facilities covered by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) and the Architectural Barriers Act of 1968 (ABA) that talk about the accessibility of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations.
This proposed rule provides specifications for the accessibility of EV charging stations, including the EV charger (physical and communication access), EV charging space, access aisles, and accessible routes.
