The program strives to be inclusive by accepting Medicaid payments and providing paratransit options. With pricing based on distance traveled, ranging from $2 to $6, riders can choose between private or shared rides, depending on their preference. For added convenience, the program allows on-demand scheduling and offers assistance with packages or bags. Moreover, riders can expect reliable and accommodating service, with features like door-to-door or curb-to-curb transportation, as well as the option to have a driver wait during errands or appointments. Whether utilizing bus, train, van, or rideshare services, the Public Transit program aims to meet the varied transportation needs of older adults while ensuring their comfort and safety throughout the journey.
