DAS's are very individual and car parks are very specific, try doing a
search of similar projects on planning portal sites in the area you are
working in.
I have attached an article I wrote for the PAS which might help with the
access side. I would just follow the headings within the CABE document
(access section expanded though). You don't mention whether this is a
multi-story or open car park, public or private.
You will need to cover numbers, ratio of accessible spaces, size of spaces.
Don't forget the local planning requirements for numbers of spaces within
the context of the building type and quote the relevant PPG/S's.

Hi Justin
I have a great example, but it is for a very large project and so therefore
not what you would expect of your run-of- the-mill type design and access
statements.
I will see what I can dig out and send you some material directly. Can
anyone else help out?
Regards

Have you got good examples yet of design and access statements, it is just
that a colleague is having to do one for a car park.

Hi Flick
Thanks for your input on this and I do remember your concerns. It would be
great if you can keep both myself and the rest of the people on the list
informed of these very interesting developments as and when they become
available in the near future.
In the meantime have a good holiday.

Hi Marcus, Alan & David
I have a lot of information and guidance on Design and Access Statements and
experience of how they are(n't) being implemented! I am also working with
the Urban Design Group in London who are about to publish a very useful
guide to writing Design and Access Statements.
I am very concerned about the CABE guidance, which I think I have mentioned
here before, and although I have made representations to them, there have
been no changes made, apart from the front page image! I can identify a
range of issues which in my view, seriously diverge from the original
Circular from DCLG and there are many sections of the text and many images
in the document which do not promote best practice and I believe are
misleading.
I have also delivered a number of training sessions, with accompanying
materials, to local authority staff and designers in the NW, on Design and
Access Statements which might be helpful to anyone looking for a training
programme.
David, I have not been able to download the Powerpoint presentations, but if
it is based on the CABE document, I would have some concerns about it being
fully comprehensive. I recognise that there is very little currently
available though and at least it is likely to introduce some of the ideas.
However, it is likely to completely ignore the place of Design and Access
Statements and their relationship to Access Statements for Building Control
and the idea of carrying through Access Statements for building managers, as
proposed in the DRC guidance, which unfortunately hasn't been updated to
include Design and Access Statements. I am also concerned at the low value
placed upon using disabled people's organisations and access groups in the
original CABE document.
I may also be able to deliver or develop frameworks, templates and useful
checklists which have recently been updated and developed on access related
issues and there will soon be available extremely useful guidance checklists
on design elements from UDG which will fully integrate access issues (unlike
the CABE recommendations).
If anyone is interested, please contact me for further discussions, as I am
meeting with UDG in a couple of weeks to further develop our work on Design
and Access Statement guidance.
Best wishes
Flick
PS. am away on holiday next week so won't be able to respond to any emails
from Monday until the weekend!

Hi everyone
I am conducting some research into the current situation on
design and access statements. I wonder if anyone who has been involved in
them would be kind enough to share examples (good or bad) or their views on
them. If anyone is willing to do so can they contact me please.
Many thanks
Marcus
