With Key2Access, you no longer have to go out of your way to access the button because everyone can have their own button in the palm of their hand. You can wirelessly request to cross using the Key2Access App or remote.

<u>For the App:</u>

When you approach an intersection, the street names will appear. You then simply select the street that you are seeking to cross. The phone will then vibrate and tell you “wait” (provided that your volume is on). When it is your turn to cross, if you are a visually impaired user, the app will have triggered any speakers, if there are any at the intersection. If you a physically impaired user, you will simply get the traditional visual traffic response with the walking man sign lit up.

For those with a visual impairment, voice over may be used to understand which button on the screen corresponds to which direction.

<u>For the Remote:</u>

If you are using the Key2Access remote, there will be four buttons. Begin by pressing the bottom button and the intersection’s speakers will read out the street names like “Main Street and King Street”. The first street read out corresponds to the first button and the second street will correspond to the second button. Therefore, if you wanted to cross main street, you would press the first button, and you will receive audible confirmation from the intersection’s speakers that the request has been received.

Please note, this process is slightly different in the process of Quebec in order to comply with local laws. If you are from Quebec, please feel free to contact us for more information.
