B-Line
Paratransit is a shared ride service designed to meet the needs of
seniors and persons with qualifying disabilities who are unable to use
the B-Line fixed route services. B-Line offers two types of paratransit services:
1. ADA PARATRANSIT - Individuals who cannot utilize the fixed route system must receive Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) certification to utilize this service. This certification ensures trips are given priority status and will not be charged premium prices.
2. DIAL-A-RIDE - Certification for individuals with disabilities that would not be eligible for ADA service as well as seniors (age 65+). Dial-a-Ride trips will not be given priority status should individuals with ADA certification need the service and may be charged higher (premium) fares.
Eligibility Determination Procedures - If
you are a new paratransit rider you will need to be registered and certified eligible by B-Line prior to using the service. To register
for services, please select the appropriate application below and return it to the B-Line office. Applications can also be sent to you at your request by calling the B-Line administrative office (530) 879-2468.
