FYI - AccessMap.io is basically a demonstration of what routing for people with limited mobility. It only covers Seattle.

Thank you very much for your comment. What is actually the difference between OpenSidewalks and AccessMap? Is OpenSidewalks only a proposal and AccessMap the first implementation?

OpenSidewalks.com was the original proposal and is now incorporated into OSM. It was created by the Taskar Center at the University of Washington with the goal of helping people with limited mobility. It’s being implemented in Seattle, Austin, and Santa Clara. Other cities are to follow, and not just those in the US.

AccessMap.io is a demonstration of the power of routing using OSM. The code is on GitHub
