What is the responsibility of those setting up “temporary” businesses in trailers to be accessible for people with disabilities?
A. The ADA Standards cover temporary buildings and facilities as well as permanent buildings and facilities. Examples of temporary buildings or facilities include, but are not limited to: temporary classrooms, bleacher areas, exhibit areas, temporary banking facilities, temporary health screening services, or temporary safe pedestrian passageways around a construction site. Businesses operating temporarily in leased or borrowed trailers must comply with the ADA’s requirement to remove barriers in existing facilities where it is readily achievable.
