CAL is excited to launch a new educational series about accessible parking and why it matters! 🚐♿

Our first topic focuses on the striped lines next to van-accessible parking spaces. These striped areas are NOT parking spaces. They are access aisles designed so that side loading wheelchair-accessible vans can safely lower ramps or lifts, allowing individuals using wheelchairs to enter and exit their vehicles safely and independently.

When these areas are blocked, it can prevent someone from being able to get in or out of their vehicle. Keeping access aisles clear helps make our community safer and more accessible for everyone.

Together, we can all do our part to support accessibility and inclusion.
