Parkwide Visitor Restroom ADA Upgrade
Yosemite National Park » Parkwide Visitor Restroom ADA Upgrade » Document List
This project proposes to construct various Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant upgrades to restroom facilities within Yosemite National Park including the Tuolumne Meadows Service Station, Wawona Service Station, Yosemite Village Employee Services (near Village Store), and the Curry Village Stables Restrooms. A design architect has inventoried these sites for ADA deficiencies and identified specific areas to correct deficiencies. The ADA transition report recommends upgrading these restrooms.
Specific areas are:
1) Tuolumne Meadows: Upgrade plumbing fixtures. Demolish the footprint and re-design of the interior for both men's and women's. Install new wall materials, plumbing, partitions and fixtures. This building contributes to the Tuolumne Meadows Cultural Landscape.
2) Wawona: Upgrade plumbing fixtures. Demolish the footprint and re-design of the interior for both men's and women's. Install new wall materials, plumbing, partitions and fixtures. This building contributes to the Wawona Cultural Landscape.
3) Yosemite Village North End Restroom (Hair Care): Perform an analysis of the existing restroom space and path of travel. Construct upgrades to improve accessibility to the north end Village Store Complex Restrooms. Alter the sidewalk approach, the door size and opening, and the number and configuration of stalls, commodes and sinks.
4) Curry Village Stables Restroom: Install/rehabilitate the Valley Stables restroom. Replace drywall, ceiling and all hardware. Modify electrical. Install new sinks, toilets, urinals, fixtures, tile, plumbing, flooring and painting. Install insulation in the attics. Ventilate the bathrooms. The restroom is historic, has heavy use and needs complete component replacement. No alterations to the building footprint will occur to meet ADA Standards.
Schematic designs are currently being developed for each location listed above. Design will continue to 100% Construction Documents with internal reviews at the Schematic Design, Design Drawing, and Construction Document level by various park staff, including the ADA Coordinator, park Anthropology Branch staff and park History, Architecture, and Landscapes Branch staff.
