Persons who live in Montgomery County, are 18-64 years of age, and have a disability as defined by the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) are eligible to apply for this service. The days and hours of operation are the same as the Senior Citizen Shared Ride Program. The one-way fare is $4.35 or 15% of the shared ride fare whichever is higher.
Applicants must provide certification from a professional indicating that they have a disability. If an applicant is eligible for any other transportation service, he/she must use the other service instead of the PwD program, when applicable. For example, if an applicant is also eligible for the Medical Assistance Transportation Program (MATP), he/she must use that program for all medical trips.
Brochures, applications, and service policies are available in large print. To obtain, just contact TransNet at 215-542-RIDE (7433).
