The brief

TransComfort’s riders are largely older and many have low vision, so the rebuild had to be easy to read and easy to tap before it was anything else. I made accessibility the design constraint: WCAG 2.2 AA plus selected AAA criteria, with 20px body text at 7:1 contrast and 48px touch targets, all checked by scripts against the rendered page.

What I built

  • 22 pages, including eight county service-area pages, a pricing explainer, a facilities page and an accessibility statement, with redirects from the old site’s URLs
  • Type system for low-vision readers: Atkinson Hyperlegible Next body copy, Source Serif 4 headings, 20px base text with nothing under 18px, and no motion
  • County pages naming 185 hospitals, dialysis centers and care facilities, each checked against federal CMS provider data and the US Census geocoder
  • Colorado locator map drawn from real coordinates in about 2 KB, with no map library, tiles or outside requests
  • Pricing page that explains how a fare is built from base fare, loaded miles and waiting time, and lists every factor that can change it
  • Facilities page for nursing, rehab, assisted living and dialysis schedulers, covering standing orders and monthly invoices itemized by resident and trip
  • Audit scripts that check touch-target size and spacing, rendered contrast, layout and speed, plus tuned font fallbacks that keep layout shift near 0.001
  • Phone-first booking with no forms and no outside scripts, so nothing sensitive passes through a third-party form service
