▶ Do you know how much it costs to take transit and
how you pay?

» Many transit agencies offer a reduced fare for older
adults.

» Payment options can include exact change, mobile
payment/app, or fare cards purchased in advance.

» Research the payment options offered by your local
transit agency and choose the option that works
best for you.

▶ Do you know if you qualify for special transportation
services?

» All transit agencies offer services for people with
special needs.

» ADA Complementary Paratransit Service provides
door-to-door transportation to those eligible for the
services on an appointment basis.

» Contact your county’s Community Transportation
Coordinator (CTC) to help determine if you are
eligible for this option. The CTC can deliver quality,
safe, and cost-effective transportation services if
you qualify. To find the CTC near you, go to your
County Resource in Chapter 5.
