HB 2626 Pennsylvania House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

An Act amending the act of November 10, 1999 (P.L.491, No.45), known as the Pennsylvania Construction Code Act, in Uniform Construction Code, further providing for adoption by regulations.

This bill amends Pennsylvania's Construction Code Act to update regulations for parking access aisles reserved for individuals with disabilities. It requires the Department of Labor and Industry to set rules mandating that new access aisles be at least 96 inches wide. Additionally, the bill specifies that existing aisles narrower than 96 inches must be widened to that standard whenever the parking lot undergoes routine relining. These changes directly affect parking lot owners, municipalities, and contractors responsible for building and maintaining accessible parking spaces.
