Connect Transit Accessibility

Connect Transit is committed to providing safe, accessible transportation for everyone. All Connect Transit fixed-route buses are wheelchair accessible and include features to make boarding and riding easier for people with disabilities.
Connect Transit provides ADA complimentary paratransit service (Call-A-Ride) to individuals whose functional abilities limits their use of fixed route or pool services.

Accessible Fixed-Route and Pool Services

All Connect Transit fixed-route and Pool service buses are accessible.

Accessibility features vary by bus and may include:

  • Low-floor buses that reduce or eliminate steps when boarding;
  • Buses that can kneel to reduce the height between the curb and vehicle;
  • Ramps or lifts for passengers who need them;
  • Space for mobility devices; and
  • At least two wheelchair securement locations on each fixed-route bus.

Passengers may request use of the ramp when boarding or exiting the bus.

Service Animals

Service animals are welcome on Connect Transit vehicles in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Connect Transit operators are responsible for verifying whether an animal brought onto a Connect Transit vehicle qualifies as a service animal. To make this determination, operators may use the following procedures:

  1. Permitted Questions
    Operators may ask only the following two questions, consistent with applicable law:
    a. “Is this animal a service animal?”
    b. “What task or work has the animal been trained to perform?”
  2. Courtesy Card Review
    If a passenger voluntarily presents a Connect provided Service Animal Courtesy Card, the operator may review the card to assist in determining whether the animal is a service animal.
  3. No Reverification Required
    If the operator has previously asked the questions listed in Section 1 or has previously reviewed the passenger’s Courtesy Card, the operator is not required to reverify the information for subsequent trips.
  4. Behavior Monitoring
    Operators are authorized to observe and monitor the behavior of an animal while it is on a Connect Transit vehicle to ensure it is under control and does not pose a safety risk.

Passengers traveling with a service animal on Connect Transit vehicles are responsible for:

  1. Ensuring the animal meets the definition of a service animal.
  2. Responding to operator inquiries as described previously.
  3. Maintaining control of the service animal at all times while on Connect Transit property or vehicles.
