Reasonable Accommodation Requests
The LRTA has a commitment to providing equitable transportation for all individuals, both on our Fixed Route Bus Service and Paratransit Bus Service. If you require a reasonable accommodation on a fixed route bus, please inform you driver of your requested accommodation as your enter the bus. You are not required to disclose any disability status to the driver aside from requesting your desired accommodation. As defined in 49 CFR Part 27, a reasonable accommodation is a request that would not “fundamentally alter the nature of the service, program, or activity or results in an undue financial and administrative burden.”
If you have questions or concerns about this, please contact The Fixed Route Bus Service for clarification:
