What this tracks
This dataset measures the accessibility features of sidewalks and crossings in Nevada, NV, including ramp slopes, landing dimensions, and compliance with ADA standards.
Why it matters to you
If you use a wheelchair or walk with mobility aids, this data tells you which intersections in Nevada have properly sloped ramps and adequate landing space. Business owners can check if their storefronts meet accessibility requirements before renovating entryways. Parents with strollers can identify routes with gentler slopes for easier navigation.
How to read this data
RampSlopeCenter — The steepness of a curb ramp’s center (6.3% means a 6.3-inch rise per 100 inches). ADA requires ≤8.3%.
ComplianceStatus — Whether the feature meets standards (values like “Compliant” or need repair).
Landing_Width — Flat space at ramp tops in feet (4.3 ft is ADA-compliant).
DWS_Present — 1 means detectable warning surfaces (textured pads) exist at crossings.
Try it yourself
Check your nearest intersection’s compliance by searching Nevada’s ADA inventory map for your street name and looking for “Compliant” statuses and ramp slopes under 8.3%.
