Paratransit

ADA Complementary Paratransit Service provides safe, reliable, and accessible transportation for individuals whose disabilities prevent them from using the fixed-route bus system. Available throughout Worcester and within ¾-mile corridors along WRTA routes, this convenient service is designed to help you travel with confidence. Eligible riders can schedule trips by calling 508.752.9283 (option 1) and simply providing their pickup and drop-off locations, appointment time, return details, and any travel needs such as mobility devices, a Personal Care Attendant (PCA), companion, or service animal. Service is primarily curb-to-curb, with door-to-door assistance available upon request when safety permits. Riders enjoy flexible scheduling with a 20-minute pickup window and a convenient automated reminder call the night before each trip. PCAs ride free, companions are welcome at the regular fare, and service animals are always accommodated. To ensure a smooth ride, passengers may bring only what they or their companion can carry in one trip without assistance. All program information is available in accessible formats and multiple languages, making it easy for everyone to stay informed and connected.
