UTA Bus Stops Utah County August 2018
Bus Stop Design Standards Desig sign Guid ideli lines ADA Requirements As of 2018 UTA will consider the 2015 circular from the FTA the primary authority yet the 2015 circular does not void the guidelines in place in the 2010 DOJ and the 2006 FTA ADA guidelines. These guidelines will be supplemental and referenced within this document. https://www.transit.dot.gov/regulations-and-guidance/fta-circulars/fta-circulars ADA requirements state the landing zone must be 60”x96” as indicated in Figure 2 and less than 2% sloping toward the road. UTA standards have increased the size of the required landing zone to 72”x96” to accommodate a stop flag. The stop flag will be installed on the farside of the landing zone 1.5 feet away from the curb.
Figure 1 - Dimensions of Landing Zone as indicated in the 2010 ADA Standards Slope of all concrete flatwork shall not exceed 2%. Concrete flatwork should drain toward the roadway where possible.
Figure 2 - Accessible Routes to the Bus Shelter UTA standards require an accessible route complying with Chapter 4 of the 2010 ADA guidelines connecting the bus shelter, the landing zone and the sidewalk. If sidewalk is not present sidewalk should be constructed. If sidewalk construction will exceed 20% of the cost of the bus stop, alternative construction options will be considered. A possible alternative could include a curb ramp into the roadway but the location’s specific needs must be analyzed by UTA’s Capital Development and Civil Rights Departments. Lan Landin ing Zon one an and Acc ccessible Rou oute Requirement 1. Bus stops require a Landing Zone complying with 810 of the 2010 ADA guidelines. This landing zone must be 72”x96” as indicated in Figure 2 and less than 2% sloping toward the road. 2. This Landing Zone must be connected to the sidewalk and shelter with an accessible route complying with 402 of the 2010 ADA guidelines.
a. The accessible route must be at least 3 feet wide and have a slope less than 2% in any direction i. If 2% cannot be achieved an ADA ramp may be employed to connect the landing zone and the sidewalk. The ramp must comply with Figure 5. The ramp may have a maximum slope of 5% unless handrails are included increasing the maximum slope to 8.3% (or 1:12). ii. With UTA engineer approval, a raised curb may be employed in accordance with Figure 4 to reduce the length of the ramp. 1. The horizontal spacing between the “L” #4 rebar installments must not exceed 3 feet. Figure 3 - Raised Curb Face iii.If the ramp exceeds 10 feet, stairs must be installed concurrent with the ramp in accordance with the detail in Figure 6. iv.If the length of the ramp reaches 30 feet a 5 foot landing must be installed where the slope is reduced to below 2% in the direction of the ramp. (Reconsideration of the ramp route or location of the stop may also be appropriate.)

St Stop Lo Locati tion The following delineates UTA’s preferred -stop locations: Nea earside Preferred At intersections with a stop sign At intersections where right turns are heavy from the intersecting street onto the transit street. At stop lights where the green time for the transit lane is less than 50% of the cycle. Farsid ide Preferred ed At uncontrolled intersections At stop lights where the green time for the transit street is greater than 50% of the cycle If right turns are heavy from the transit street onto the intersecting street At intersection where signal priority system has been installed After bus makes right turn After bus makes left turn Mid id-Block Preferred ed At major traffic generators At major transit transfer point if pedestrian flows naturally converge at a mid-block location
Bus Zone Length A no parking zone is required near a bus stop. The length of the no parking zone is dependent on the length of the bus operating on the stop’s route. Table 1 indicates the designated lengths. Table 1 Length of Parking Zone.
