Paratransit at 91ÁÔÆæ
91ÁÔÆæ does not offer any on-campus shuttle services.
91ÁÔÆæ's Accessible Education Center does offer mobility scooters for rental to those with a qualified mobility issue, particularly temporary mobility issues, but does not offer wheelchairs.
VTA ACCESS
Paratransit services are provided to eligible individuals with disabilities who cannot use conventional accessible bus and light rail transit service due to their physical, visual or cognitive disabilities.
Paratransit services are offered through the VTA ACCESS program, which provides shared rides within the VTA service area, during VTA operating times. Customers can expect multiple pick ups and drop offs along their trips, just like a bus.
VTA ACCESS for 91ÁÔÆæ Students and Employees
The 91ÁÔÆæ Smartpass covers the cost of rides in the standard VTA Access service area, but not in the premium VTA ACCESS service area.
In order to receive VTA ACCESS services, you must first obtain an 91ÁÔÆæ Smartpass, then have your eligibility determined.
