Hello - Have a question on evacuation maps (in CA particularly). Is there any kind of requirement that braille (or other accessibility feature) should be provided for an evac map? There is so much info on evac maps that I can't imagine how that would work...

Thanks,
Neal
 
Nope..."wayfinding" is exempt...Closest thing you have is 1111.2 to 1009.10

1009.10 Directional signage. Directional signage indicating
the location of all other means of egress and which of those
are accessible means of egress shall be provided at the following:
1. At exits serving a required accessible space but not providing
an approved accessible means of egress.
