94 A SUMMARY OFACCESSIBILITY STANDARDS FOR OUTDOOR DEVELOPEDAREAS accessibility standards for Federal outdoor developed areas The following table highlights the key elements of design for different route types. Route Characteristics Pedestrian Route Type Key Elements of Design Intent Accessible route (AR) Connects accessible elements and spaces of a building or facility on a site Sidewalk—pedestrian access route (PAR) Parallel to roadway Designed for pedestrians (not bicycles) Sometimes part of the roadway Trail Designed for the “recreation experience” Does not connect elements and spaces on a site Generally includes a trailhead Has limited to no transportation function Outdoor recreation access route (ORAR) Connects outdoor constructed features and spaces within picnic and camping facilities, viewing areas, and trailheads only Beach access route (BAR) Crosses the surface of the beach to the shoreline Coincides with or is located in the same general area as pedestrian access points to the beach Shared-use path (SUP) Intended for multi-use Bicycle/transportation focus Machined, layered surface (improved) Located in either an “independent corridor” or public right-of-way
