 Boston University is committed to providing equal and integrated access for individuals with disabilities to all the academic, social, cultural, and recreational programs we offer. In keeping with our commitment, the University has created this accessibility map of the Charles River Campus. Although the achievement of architectural access is a work in-progress for a campus as large, diverse, and historic as ours, this map provides the most accurate description of accessibility features available. Please Note: The Campus Accessibility Map shows only those buildings and facilities that currently offer wheelchair access. For a complete map of the Boston University Charles River Campus, please visit the University Visitor Center. If you would like a hard-copy of the Campus Accessibility Map, let us know. Map FeaturesTravel routes between buildings are on well-kept sidewalks and open walkways. To the extent possible, curb cuts, which will allow users to plan the most efficient path of travel from one area of the campus to another, are marked on the map. Please notify the Office of Disability Services if you discover curb cuts that are blocked by vehicles or otherwise rendered impassable. You will find that most of the Charles River Campus is located on flat land. The top portion of the map provides Campus Landmarks and a Grade-Angle Profile. Additional map features include each building's accessible entrance location, automatic doors, audible traffic signals, and 24-hour campus emergency telephones. Though not indicated on the map, public pay telephones are available throughout the campus, and many are wheelchair-accessible.The map also includes the location of TTY payphones as well as Audible Crosswalk Signals at the following intersections:

The projects currently underway, and others planned in the future, may modify accessible campus routes and impact parking.
