Abstract

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 included a requirement that public entities operating fixed route transportation services for the general public also must provide complementary paratransit service to persons unable to use the fixed route system. The ADA specifies, when this service is required, eligibility criteria for the paratransit services, the level of service that must be provided, and standards of operation. This project identifies existing paratransit services in the Logan, Utah area, describes the services of these providers, and develops recommendations to improve the services.
