Accessibility with Get Going

The goal of this proposal is to make the GetGoing system which enables seniors to get transportation information over the phone, to also serve individuals with impairments who need more information about how to get to a desired destination such as condition of sidewalks and where the relevant entrance of a building is located. The team will work with PsthVu and UPMC to help individuals access all of the UPMC hospitals.
