The Public Transportation program offers convenient and affordable transit options for older adults needing to travel within a specific range. For trips 10 miles or less, the fare is a flat rate of $5 for a one-way or round trip. Any additional miles beyond the initial 10 incur a charge of $0.50 per mile. Regular riders can benefit from a frequent rider discount, receiving half-price fares for taking at least three trips per week over a two-week period.
This program not only caters to local trips but also provides inter-city transportation at discounted rates. Seniors aged 55 and above enjoy reduced rates of $0.25 per mile compared to the standard $0.30 per mile for the first recipient. Moreover, family members accompanying the primary rider can avail themselves of a 50% discount on their fares.
Riders can access this program's services by scheduling their trips in advance, allowing for seamless planning and coordination. Payment for the services can be made via cash or check, providing flexibility to older adults. The program operates on a per-mile charging system and ensures shared rides to optimize efficiency and reduce costs.
