USDOJ Extends ADA Website Accessibility Compliance Timeline

The U.S. Department of Justice has issued an interim rule pushing back the compliance deadlines for ADA website and mobile app accessibility requirements affecting state and local governments. Jurisdictions with populations of 50,000 or more now have until April 26, 2027 (instead of April 2026), while smaller jurisdictions and special districts have until April 26, 2028 (instead of April 2027) to meet the requirements.

This extension allows additional time to address challenges related to resources, staffing, and technology, but the obligation to provide accessible digital services remains unchanged.

Our agency has been actively working with our municipal client partners over the past year to ensure compliance with all accessibility requirements for website and mobile app products and will continue to do so as we work toward the extended deadline.
