S 2392 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Revises requirements for signage indicating accessible facilities for people with disabilities.

This bill (S 2392) requires New Jersey to replace the wheelchair symbol and the word "handicapped" with a new dynamic character logo and the word "accessible" on all public accessibility signage, placards, license plates, and markers. It applies only to new installations or replacements after the law takes effect (60 days post-enactment), not to existing signage. The new logo must be simple, identifiable, and provide equivalent accessibility to the current symbol. This affects all public facilities - like restrooms, ramps, and parking spaces - using such signage to indicate accessibility features. The change aligns with similar laws in New York and Connecticut and global adoption of the revised symbol.
