Dial-A-Ride operates as a paratransit program, offering curb-to-curb transportation via vans that cater to the needs of riders. Payment for services is flexible, allowing riders to pay by check, credit card, pre-payment, or in cash, providing convenience for all participants. Additionally, Dial-A-Ride welcomes service animals onboard, ensuring that riders with assistance animals can travel comfortably.
