On the shortest accessible route to the accessible entrance, provide at least 2 van accessible spaces and 12 standard spaces designated as reserved for people with disabilities. Standards §§ 4.1.2(5), 4.6, 4.30.7(1).

B. Accessible Route: Along the route from the garage to the garage exit, and on various other floors near the stairs, the wall-mounted telephones protrude 7 inches into the main walkway and would not be detectable to a blind person using a cane. Provide accessible routes at these locations such that no objects with their bottom leading edges measuring between 27 inches and 80 inches above the finished floor protrude more than 4 inches into walks, halls, corridors, passageways, or aisles. Free-standing objects mounted on posts or pylons may overhang 12 inches maximum from 27 inches to 80 inches above the ground or finished floor. Standards §§ 4.1.2(3), 4.4.

C. Telephone (1^st Floor - Near Equipment): The telephone on the 1^st floor near the equipment is inaccessible because it lacks clear floor space and volume control. Provide an accessible telephone with a clear floor space of at least 30 inches by 48 inches that allows either a forward or parallel approach by a person using a wheelchair such that bases, enclosures, and fixed seats do not impede approaches to the telephone; with the highest operable part of the telephone mounted no more than 48 inches above the floor for a front approach or no more than 54 inches above the floor for a side approach; that is hearing aid compatible and has a volume control mechanism; with telephone books, if provided, located between 15 and 48 inches above the finished floor for a front approach or between 9 and 54 inches above the finished floor for a side approach; with a cord of at least 29 inches long from the telephone to the handset; and with signage that complies with the Standards.

E. Main Building Elevators: The elevators are inaccessible because the door reopening devices do not remain effective for at least 20 seconds. For each, provide doors that open and close automatically with a reopening device that will stop and reopen the car door and hoistway door automatically if the door becomes obstructed by an object or person. Ensure that the device is capable of completing these operations without requiring contact for obstructions passing through the opening at heights of 5 inches and 29 inches above the finished floor; that door reopening devices remain effective for at least 20 seconds, after which the doors may close; that the minimum time from notification that a car is answering a call until the doors of that car start to close is 5 seconds; and that the minimum time for elevator doors to remain fully open in response to a car call is 3 seconds.
