Accessible Exterior Design

As restaurants re-open and implement outdoor seating options, it is important to consider accessibility every step of the way. The City of Mississauga's Facility Accessibility Design Standards provide checklists and diagrams of accessible pathways, entrances, and seating. Industry professionals and organizations are providing examples of how to integrate accessible design with COVID-19 regulations. We highly recommend businesses to refer to the standards and examples to ensure access to their establishment for all.  ​​
