Paratransit

I am trying to make sure my daughter’s Paratransit rides for tomorrow are cxed. I call hear the long explanation then get disconnected. It says use the app but the app doesn’t deal with Paratransit. I feel like I am a hamster on a wheel. Like be paratransit but hard to use.

USELESS

Cannot use he app to schedule a paratransit ride. The routing is heavily biased to the limited fixed route bus system. The pickup/drop off maybe more than a mile away, even if your profile is marked wheelchair. Rides on the the on demand service are not guaranteed, even during posted hours of operation.
