Personal Care Attendants/Escorts:

  • If a rider is unable to complete travel by themselves the may have a PCA/escort assist them
  • Escort MUST be picked up/dropped off at same location and time as fare rider
  • Designated PCA/escort rides free of charge
  • Anyone accompanying the rider and PCA/escort will be required to pay a regular fare

May Personal Care Attendants (PCAs) Ride for Free on Complementary Paratransit and Fixed Route?

Under Department of Transportation (DOT) Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) regulations at 49 C.F.R. Section 37.131(c)(3), a personal care attendant (PCA) may not be charged a fare for complementary paratransit service. Under 49 C.F.R. Section 37.123(f)(1)(ii), a companion (i.e., friend or family member) does not count as a PCA unless the companion is actually acting in the capacity of PCA. PCAs may be charged a fare on fixed route. While some transit systems go beyond the minimum requirements of the ADA and allow PCAs to ride for free, there is no requirement that they do so.

Same Day Fare: If your ride is not pre-scheduled fares are doubled for the first destination of your trip. Regular fares apply thereafter.

No Shows: If a passenger does not cancel a scheduled ride or is not on time for pick-up this is considered a no show. If another ride needs to be scheduled the day of the no show it will be considered a same day ride and charged accordingly.
