Rides for Seniors Ends April 30, 2022: This temporary program, introduced in the spring of 2020, was implemented to provide a safe transportation option for seniors during the Coronavirus pandemic. “Rides For Seniors” was possible as a result of a sharp decline in Paratransit ridership due to COVID-19, which left a surplus of Paratransit vans and drivers that could be put to use serving the region’s senior population. Although the program was highly successful, as Paratransit’s demand returns to normal levels, the vans are again required to meet the transportation needs of our most vulnerable customers. For this reason, the Rides for Seniors program will be ending on April 30.
