After many years and iterations, the US Access Board has now published new guidelines under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) that address access to sidewalks and streets, crosswalks, curb ramps, pedestrian signals, on-street parking, and other components of public rights-of-way.

Here it is: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/08/08/2023-16149/accessibility-guidelines-for-pedestrian-facilities-in-the-public-right-of-way

You can find background on this here: https://www.access-board.gov/prowag/

We shoud review and incoporate into our new Labeling Guide and possibly the audit interface
