OTHER SOURCES OF INFORMATION The best way to get a conceptual overview of what is available is to look over Getting on Board from the CT DOT. 1-877-CTrides www.ctrides.com: This web site will direct you to regional transit systems where you can then print out map & schedule information. It also gives you the option of filling a request form online for more personalized information. Info line (211) www.infoline.org: This phone service and its companion web site offer a listing of available services grouped by town and by type of transportation available. There are telephone numbers and general information for every listing. 4 TYPES OF TRANSPORTATION SERVICES OFFERED BY LOCAL PROVIDERS Ride services offered by different providers in our area can be categorized into certain basic classes: Fixed transit is standard bus service running on a set route and schedule. You ride and you pay a fare. The fare is reduced if you are elderly or disabled, but you must pay to ride. All buses in CT are handicapped accessible. ADA Para-Transit, which serves those who are disabled, of any age. (Paratransit: Para means alongside. Para transit is service that often augments regular routes and is furnished in vehicles that are sized between a bus and a car.) The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires transit agencies to provide paratransit services to people with disabilities who cannot use the fixed route bus or rail service (also known as mainline service). In general, paratransit service must be provided within 3/4 of a mile of a bus route or rail station, during the same hours and days, for no more than twice the regular fixed route fare. The ADA further requires that paratransit rides be provided to all eligible riders if requested any time the previous day, within an hour of the requested time. Aides ride for free. Companions do not. To use this service you must apply and prove you are disabled. Call the local system for the application form. Dial-a-Ride Service- This is offered to senior citizens (most often defined as those 60 or over) and to younger persons with disabilities. Once someone qualifies and registers for the program, he or she calls a dispatcher, in advance, and makes a reservation. A vehicle is sent to his/her person’s home at the appointed time. The person is taken to his/ her destination and is picked up and brought home at a set time or when his/ her business is done. Some services limit destinations to medical and dental offices. Others may give rides to Senior Centers or shopping areas. Some go to anywhere within the service area. 5 Dial-A-Ride Service Continued Service is usually door-to-door. There may or may not be a charge, depending on provider. Most of the time, service is not refused for failure to pay the fare. To use the service you apply to local provider and prove age or disability. Medical Transportation programs- These are variations on the Dial-a-ride theme. They typically offer non-emergency transport. They are normally for the patient and a caregiver or family member who accompanies the patient. Job Links service- www.joblinksct.com, provides rides to employment located in areas not served by public transit. This is done by extending existing routes, by creating special routes or by expanding hours of service. In addition, workers may be provided with gas cards or be provided funds for car repair or for license, emission or insurance costs when no public transit is available. The rider does not have to be a senior or disabled. However, he/ she must be low-income. A client service request form must be filled out by a job developer, case manager or placement agency. It is then returned to local Job Links coordinator. Call your regional transit provider for more information.

This is one-on-one instruction for those with cognitive, sensory, and physical disabilities. The trainer travels along with the client when he/she uses the transit system and will continue to accompany him /her on trips until he /she reaches a skill and confidence level that enables him /her to ride without assistance. This service is free. It is available throughout most of CT. They do not ask for proof of disability. They do not do travel training for the blind.
