Many people with disabilities can ride ordinary, fixed transit routes; for those who can't, paratransit offers door-to-door service. Paratransit vehicles vary their routes based on riders’ destinations, but they must be booked in advance.
Though the Americans with Disabilities Act does not require transit agencies “to meet all the transportation needs of individuals with disabilities,” it does ensure that people with disabilities receive the same mass transportation opportunities as everyone else. Most paratransit rides cost $3; please follow the links below for more information on local paratransit providers.
