Along runs and landings, the minimum clear width must be measured between the leading edge of handrails Boarding and alighting areas shall provide a clear length of 2.4 m (8.0 ft) minimum, measured perpendicular to the curb or street or highway edge, and a clear width of 1.5 m (5.0 ft) minimum, measured parallel to the street or highway. This also applies to landings required to be at least 60β³ by 60β³ where ramps change directions so that the minimum landing area remains clear.

At this stage, it is clear that as1428.1:2009 strictly requires the width of a curved ramp to be 1500mm between handrails
Curved ramps require practical consideration of a minimum width that facilitates an accessible path of travel.
Existing elevator cars shall be permitted to provide a clear width 36 inches (915 mm) minimum, clear depth 54 inches (1370 mm) minimum, and a net clear platform area 15 square feet (1.4 m2) minimum.
