Accessible Seating

The minimum number of wheelchair spaces applies to individual spaces (33 inches wide minimum). Those that are paired (as shown in ADAAG Figure 46) count as two spaces. At least one fixed seat for a companion must be located next to each wheelchair space. Aisle seats with folding or removable armrests (or no armrests) are required for people who walk with difficulty or who prefer to transfer from wheelchairs.
