The accessible route has running slopes greater than 5% and has not been constructed as a ramp (i.e. handrails,edge protection, etc.). Cross slopes are greater than 2% across the width of the walk.
When the slope in the direction of travel of any walk exceeds 1 unit vertical in 20 units horizontal (5-percent slope), it must be constructed as a ramp. Surface cross slopes must not exceed 1 unit vertical in 48 units horizontal (2-percent slope).

The walkway contains abrupt vertical edges and/or variations over a 1/2 inch.
1/4 inch is the maximum vertical rise. Changes in level between 1/4 inch and 1/2 inch must be beveled at 1:2 or less.
Changes in level greater than 1/2 inch must be by way of a ramp.
