Posted by Jackson Park B Train on Tue Oct 13 01:15:13 2015, in response to Re: Allan Rosen and the 34th Street (Herald Square) elevator, posted by The silence on Tue Oct 13 00:53:48 2015. speaking as someone who often acompanies a person in a wheelchair,the ADA specs forshallow grades certainly apply for many persons particularly in manual chairs or if a power chair is being balky, an upper grade power chair can negotiate much steeper ramps. Also, IF the chair is being pushedby a companion, many non compliant ramps can be negotiated.That said, myexperience w/ a friend trying to use the F from Herald Square we had difficulty making the"step" up to the floor of (maybe) an R-4x. Between her power chair and my determined tugging we got in, but alone her chair would not have done it. |
