Why Why Accessible Parking Compliance Matters?

Last month, a facility manager from Dandenong South called us in a panic. Their accessible parking bays were marked at 2.9m instead of 3.2m wide. Council had issued a $4,800 fine and given them 28 days to rectify.

The previous contractor had used outdated specifications. The bays looked fine to the untrained eye, but they didn't meet AS/NZS 2890.6:2009 requirements. A person using a wheelchair couldn't open their door fully and transfer safely.

We remarked the entire accessible parking area that weekend. Correct 2.4m bays with 2.4m shared spaces, symbols positioned at the front of bays (not the rear), and proper 1:40 gradient compliance.

Three Dandenong South facilities copped similar fines last year. Not because they didn't have accessible bays, but because the bays didn't meet specifications. This is completely avoidable with correct marking from the start.
