What is Brisbane Accessible Parking Must Meet Strict Standards for People Who Need It?

Quick answer: Line Marking Australia marks accessible parking across Brisbane, from Chermside on the northside to Carindale on the southside, to AS/NZS 2890.6:2009. A compliant bay is 2.4 m wide and 5.4 m long, with a 2.4 m shared space, a bollard, yellow shared-space markings and a white symbol on blue. We quote within 48 hours.

A medical centre in Chermside called us after receiving a complaint to the Human Rights Commission. Their accessible bays were marked at standard width without shared spaces. A patient using a wheelchair couldn't open their door fully to transfer. The centre faced potential discrimination findings and needed urgent remediation.

We redesigned their accessible parking to full AS/NZS 2890.6 compliance. 2.4m bays with 2.4m shared spaces between pairs, correct symbol placement at the front of bays, and compliant signage mounting locations marked. The centre resolved their complaint with evidence of compliant facilities.

We made a shared space error at a Carindale shopping centre in 2017. We marked the shared space at 1.8m instead of 2.4m minimum. Council inspection failed. We corrected at our cost, around $1,700.

Standards for disabled parking in Queensland

Brisbane accessible bays follow AS/NZS 2890.6:2009, the edition called up by the National Construction Code. NCC clause D4D6 sets how many bays you need: shops need 1 per 50 car spaces up to 1,000, then 1 per 100, and offices and industrial sites need 1 per 100. Tactile indicators follow AS/NZS 1428.4.1.
