Proper fastening of personal mobility devices is available on all conventional YRT and Viva vehicles.

Accessible Door for Escorting Passengers | ||||
All Mobility On-Request (MOR) Paratransit passengers will be escorted by the driver to and from the first accessible door. An accessible door is a driveway or curb cut for the ramp of a MOR Paratransit vehicle, with a flat, level and paved landing area with additional space for a mobility aid/passenger and driver. If needed, a MOR Inspector can visit your location to assess its accessibility. To ensure the safety of the passenger and driver, clients must ensure all snow, ice and other debris have been cleared to produce a barrier-free path between the residence doorway/departure area and the end of the driveway. |
