- Wheelchair, walker, and cane users in Wake County
- Worth noticing
- Its example scoring treats a risky crossing of a 45-mph road as about 650 feet of extra walking; some sidewalk-free roads are ruled out entirely.
Field notes
Users can choose a preset mobility profile or set limits including maximum slope, steps, curb ramps, and sidewalks; the page says those preferences stay on the phone. Its listed inputs span municipal inventories, state crash and speed-limit data, volunteer OpenStreetMap entries, and USGS elevation, while confirmed community reports can affect routes for other users.
