Service Description
Access Transit is for those who are unable to use the regular transit system. A shared-ride service, traveling on an accessible door to accessible door basis. Provides:
- Assistance for you from the door to the vehicle and vehicle to door at destination
- Help with boarding and exiting the vehicle
- Assists with securing you and your mobility device
Users of Access Transit must be registered and approved to book trips. To learn more, or to register, see contact information.
Access Transit is not a taxi service. We are shared-ride transportation, where booking and scheduling decisions are made to transport as many clients as possible.
Low Floor Transit Buses improve access for all customers, including those with canes, crutches, walkers, young children, or burdensome packages. Low floor service allows many more people with reduced mobility the freedom and independence of using public transit services.
Low-Floor buses are also able to provide service for up to two passengers at a time who use mobility devices such as a wheelchair or scooter.
See website for more information.
