How does the access aisle for a van accessible space differ from that of a car accessible space?

It is wider
It is longer
It has a different surface material
There is no difference

The correct answer is: It is wider

The access aisle for a van accessible space is wider than that of a car accessible space to accommodate the needs of individuals using mobility devices. This wider aisle is designed to provide sufficient space for wheelchair lifts or ramps, making it easier for individuals to enter and exit the vehicle safely. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) specifies that van accessible parking spaces must have an access aisle that is at least 96 inches wide, whereas car accessible spaces typically have access aisles that are 60 inches wide. This difference in width facilitates maneuverability, allowing users to navigate comfortably without the risk of encroaching on adjacent parking spaces. The wider access aisle also helps ensure compliance with accessibility standards, promoting inclusivity and safety for individuals with disabilities.
