Limited access to transportation is considered to be one of the causes of exclusion, discrimination and lower access to employment. App&Town Compagnon is an assisted transport system for people with disabilities and mobility impairments. The solution reduces the accessibility barriers that hinder the personal autonomy of vulnerable people. This article puts forward the need for new technologies to take into account the user as an essential factor in their development and applicability and describes the motivations of the project, technical aspects relevant for its development and its synergy with Barcelona ATM’s new ticket sale arrangement. The project paves the way for new technologies, that can extend people’s possibilities of enjoying independent and safe mobility.
