The Senior Transportation program offers a convenient and reliable transportation option for older adults.

Payment options include Medicaid, pre-payment, credit card, or cash, providing flexibility for riders.
Riders can expect shared van rides, promoting a sense of community while traveling. For individuals with mobility challenges or dementia-related concerns, an accompanying adult, who may be under age 60, is permitted to provide additional assistance during the trip. To accommodate high demand and ensure a smooth experience, it is recommended to schedule rides at least two to three weeks in advance. This program operates on a scheduling system, requiring bookings to be made at least a week before the intended travel date.
With curb-to-curb service, older adults can enjoy door-to-door transportation, enhancing their mobility and independence. Whether running daily errands or attending appointments, the Senior Transportation program serves as a valuable resource for older adults seeking safe and accessible travel options in the community.
