Asphalt Parking Lot Paving Milwaukee

The Importance of Capacity, Access & Flow in Parking Lots

When planning a new parking lot, the goal is to provide the most convenient parking capacity while maximizing the available space. There are various elements to consider in order to get the most out of the given parking space. Listed below are a few examples:

• The lot should use rectangular spaces
• Long sides of the parking lot should be parallel
• To serve two rows of stalls, two-row traffic lanes should be used
• Parking spaces should be available all around the lot's border

Special emphasis should be paid to the flow into, out of, and within the area. Entrances should be kept away from busy street intersections and areas where traffic lines form at stop lights or signals. Vehicles should be able to enter the lot from the inside, eliminating traffic congestion caused by turning vehicles.

Handicapped parking is another aspect to consider. Handicapped parking spaces must be close to the facility in question, and slopes must be no more than a certain depth. Please contact us if you have any questions concerning handicapped parking.

It's a lot of fun to stripe or re-stripe a parking lot, but it's not as simple as it appears. It needs a great deal of measuring and planning. You won't be able to make the most of your parking lot's space if you don't do it right. Alternatively, you could end up with really small spaces. And, let's face it, no one enjoys crowded parking lots! Spatial efficiency is always vital when it comes to making your parking lot appear tidy and accessible.

Our Main Concern is Safety

Parking lot striping is crucial for automobiles and pedestrians alike. A crossing that has been conspicuously striped is impossible to miss, lowering the likelihood of collisions on your property. If you have one-way traffic in your parking lot, you'll need visible pavement signs like arrows to direct drivers. A safe parking lot should strive for clear visual information from all directions. It's all part of the strategy, whether it's using large, bright arrows to lead people in the proper direction or using high-visibility dotted lines to keep cars away from pedestrian paths. Even clearly identifying crosswalks will go a long way toward ensuring that neither bicyclists nor motorists have any problem navigating the area.

When it comes to pedestrian traffic and safety, parking lot designers take the following steps into consideration:

• Regulations and safety precautions are properly displayed
• Maintaining good space and aisle marks for maximum visibility
• Consider parking spaces towards the back or side of the lot, giving pedestrians another route to the sidewalk
• For increased safety during the evening hours, proper lighting installation in accordance with local regulation is required
• If traffic has to be slowed, speed bumps or other traffic calming devices can be installed

ADA Requirements for Asphalt Parking Lots

All businesses must have handicapped parking spaces on their properties under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Bright, bold colors will readily identify these places, making it easier for anyone who is visiting and needs a spot near the entrance or other areas if they want wheelchair access. You'll also be confident that you're following this vital law to the letter! Here's a rundown of Wisconsin's handicapped parking requirements:

• Fewer than a total of 100 parking spaces: If your parking lot has fewer than 100 total spots, you must have one handicapped parking space for every 25 spaces. For example, if you have 75 parking spaces, three (3) handicapped parking places are required.
• 100-150 total parking spaces: You must have at least five ADA-compliant handicapped parking spaces for this number of parking spaces.
• 151-200 total parking spaces:  At least six (6) handicapped parking spaces are required for this amount of parking spaces.
• 201-300 total parking spaces: Total parking spaces: 201-300: If your parking lot has this many spots, you must have at least seven (7) handicapped parking places.
• 301+ total parking spaces: For this parking lot, you're required to have one handicapped, ADA-compliant parking space for every eight spaces.
