➌ Planters configured adjacent to on-street parking should provide a level step-out zone along the curb to accommodate vehicle entry and exit, and mitigate soil compaction and trampling, typically 36 inches wide from the curb face. Provide regular access paths between the curb and pedestrian through zone, at least 5 feet wide.

Shorter planters (20 feet or less in length) with regular access paths between the curb and sidewalk can enable narrower step-out width on constrained sidewalks; 12–18 inches of firm, compacted surface behind the curb face can accommodate vehicle entry and access. Provide designated parking and loading spaces with accessible paths and clearances for people using mobility devices on every block and at major destinations.
