Port Authority Deploys ASL and Navigation Tools Across Transit System

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is expanding two accessibility technologies across its transport network following successful pilots. The rollout will introduce 24/7 American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation services across major Port Authority facilities through technology from Convo Communications, while indoor navigation tools developed by GoodMaps will expand to all stations on the network.

This move aims to improve communication and navigation for passengers with disabilities, enhancing their overall travel experience. By leveraging these technologies, the Port Authority demonstrates its commitment to creating a more inclusive and accessible transit system.
