Roll With Me

Roll With Me is a website by Mohammad Ouyoun that gives transit directions for the those who use wheelchairs. Smart Chicago provided Ouyoun with an internship to complete his app after graduating from Starter School.

The app then gives you a number of options on how to get to your destination.

The app itself is simple to use. You enter in your current location, your destination, and when you want to leave. The app then routes you and gives you accessibility alerts right up top. It uses responsive design, so it works on any web- enabled mobile device. Currently, the app only delivers information about tranist in Chicago. However, because the app is open source the app can be deployed to any city that has published data on which transit options are accessible.
