Why Should My Parking Lot Be Striped?
Key reasons to ensure your parking lot striping is kept up to date and visible include; safety, compliance, efficiency, curb appeal and traffic flow.
You must ensure that your parking lot striping remains well-maintained and visible to help prevent accidents for both drivers and pedestrians, as well as for limiting your liability in case of accidents or injury on your property.
All parking lots in the state of California must be compliant with the ADA (American Disabilities Act): ensuring you have enough disabled spots for your parking ratio, spots are the correct dimensions, access aisles are clearly marked and slip resistant, the correct signage is present and that all spaces and markings are visible and well maintained.
What Happens If My Parking Lot Is Not ADA Compliant?
If your parking lot is not ADA compliant you could face several serious consequences – legal, financial and reputational.
Fines start at $4,000 per violation in California and some businesses have faced settlements in the millions for broader ADA violations including parking lot accessibility.
Non-compliance can also send a message of neglect to the wider community and could cause reputational damage for your business.
