Regional Transit Service Commission (RTSC)

Accessibility |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
In an effort to improve transit access for users with limited mobility, the new FST buses are specially equipped with accessible ramps and the ability to kneel and lower. Riders may request the ramp by asking the driver to activate the feature. When using our local service, a companion can ride free for helping a person with disabilities. Riders must ensure that their equipment be safely secured aboard FST vehicles. The City is currently in the process of implementing asphalt pads at bus stops for greater accessibility throughout the transit network. |
