This document outlines a color coding system for prioritizing ADA ramp reconstruction. It ranks locations from highest to lowest priority if within 200 feet of government offices, transportation, public accommodations, or employers. It also provides a color coding scheme to indicate the severity of ramp failures and prioritize reconstruction based on the number of criteria failed. Each category for prioritizing ramps by location, severity, and type will be assigned a unique color for mapping and planning purposes.
