Access Maps

AXS Map is a new tool for searching and reviewing the accessibility of shops, restaurants and all kinds of buildings.

You can search AXS Map for accessible venues by searching for a type of venue and a location, e.g. restaurants in New York. The results of each search are then displayed on a Google Map. Venues that have already been reviewed for their accessibility are displayed on the map with a Green map marker.

If you click on a reviewed venue you can find out if the building has a wide entry and if it has ramped access. You can also discover whether the restrooms are accessible. AXS Map is a crowd-sourced platform so users can also contribute their own reviews of a venue's accessibility.
