Getting where you need to go means more than reaching a destination. It means independence, opportunity and connection. This White Cane Safety Day, we recognize the white cane as an important tool for safe, independent travel. VIA supports riders’ independence with tools like NaviLens codes at bus stops, which help blind and low-vision riders access spoken directions and real-time bus information through their smartphones.
