| Abstract | The Complete Trip Deployment Pilot in Buffalo seeks to expand its current Go Niagara Medical Campus (BNMC), which provides information on mobility to/from the campus. The pilot deployment will improve mobility to, from and within the BNMC by deploying new and advance technologies with a focus on addressing existing mobility and access challenges. Examples of the technologies to be deployed are electric self-driving shuttles, trip planning app that is customized for accessible travel, intersections that use tactile and mobile technologies to enable travelers with disabilities navigate intersections and outdoor/indoor wayfinding. The pilot includes the 120-acre Medical Campus and surrounding neighborhoods with a focus on three nearby neighborhoods (Fruit Belt, Masten Park and Allentown) with underserved populations (low income, vision and hearing impaired, wheelchair users and older adults). The pilot will be deployed in three phases (planning, design/deployment and demonstration), with the first one taking all 12 months of 2021. This document describes the project team’s approach to user need and system requirements identification, documentation, and management. It is important to clarify that no needs or requirements are listed in this document. |
