Get Started Today! Special Transit is made up of several different types of transportation and mobility services. We offer Paratransit services, Family and Friends Mileage Reimbursement, the Easy Rider Travel Training Program, and information and referral to available community transportation options. Paratransit Special Transit's paratransit program provides low-cost, wheelchair-accessible, demand responsive transportation in small buses for people who have limited mobility. Older adults, people with disabilities (temporary or permanent) of all ages, and very low-income individuals may use this program. You may travel to any destination within our service area including but not limited to: employment, education or volunteer sites, medical and therapy appointments, group meal sites, grocery and department stores, senior center programs, and so much more. You choose where you want to go. (more information...) Volunteer Driver Programs Special Transit collaborates with American Red Cross and other volunteer management programs to provide transportation services using volunteer drivers and private cars. These efforts allow Special Transit to expand service, minimize costs and maximize the use of community resources. Family and Friends Mileage Reimbursement This program provides mileage reimbursement to a friend or family member who provides a trip for you when Special Transit has been unable to meet your service needs. Trips must be approved by the Scheduling Department and mileage is reimbursed at $.42/mile or a flat rate for longer distances. Easy Rider Program The Easy Rider Program is a free, comprehensive one-on-one travel training program designed to teach older adults and people with disabilities how to safely and confidently use public transportation to expand independent travel options. Training techniques are adapted based on an individual’s abilities or disabilities. The Easy Rider Program also offers the popular Seniors On the Move program which conducts travel training in a group setting. For more information, please visit the Travel Training page.
