Elevator Accessibility Requirements

SB 960 requires elevator car interiors to include at least one support rail meeting specific safety and accessibility specifications. This applies directly to building owners and operators installing or upgrading elevators in commercial and public facilities. The key provision mandates that the rail must be positioned, sized, and designed to provide safe handhold support for individuals with mobility impairments during elevator use. The bill focuses on improving physical accessibility within elevators without altering broader building codes or introducing new funding mechanisms.
