Project Summary

The Department of Design and Construction (DDC) is undertaking construction projects that can cause disruptions and inconvenience to residents and businesses. Many of them are unaware of the projects’ wider context and local understanding can fall short over why these disruptions occur. To address this issue, a team of three UX Designers at the Center for Digital Experiences developed a mobile application aimed at improving communication with affected communities about the construction projects.
