rampway

Angled walking surface

A rampway is a sloped passage or roadway connecting different levels, essentially a synonym for ramp.

The term appears in architectural, construction, and transportation contexts: The parking garage rampway was too steep for wheelchairs.

It emphasizes the path itself rather than just the inclined surface.
