Paratransit

Demand Response

Door-to-door advance reservation service is provided throughout the county to those persons unable to access transit service because of a verifiable disability, environmental barrier, or distance from a route.

GOPASCO buses are designed to ensure persons with disabilities are provided equal access. Persons needing assistance may bring a Personal Care Attendant (PCA) and pay the applicable bus fare. When calling to arrange your paratransit trip, please inform the operator that a PCA will be traveling with you so that we may better accommodate you.
