Bradley International Airport expands support for people with disabilities with a specialized airport navigation system. The move implements the GoodMaps navigation system to advance accessible air travel infrastructure by leveraging cutting-edge 3D mapping technology.

The GoodMaps app’s sophisticated indoor wayfinding capabilities provide customized routing that accommodates diverse requirements — from audio guidance for visually impaired travelers to step-free pathways for wheelchair users and multilingual support for international passengers. By offering real-time updates and turn-by-turn directions to key facilities like security checkpoints, gates, and amenities, the airport navigation system reduces the stress and disorientation commonly experienced in complex environments.

The GoodMaps navigation system is available for free on major mobile platforms. Bradley International Airport likely strategically timed this announcement to coincide with Global Accessibility Awareness Day.
