 FACT buses are accessible to persons with disabilities. However, if your disability prevents you from getting to the bus stop and you live within ¾ of a mile of the bus route, FACT can provide curb-to-curb service. Accessible fixed-route bus service is available during the same hours that public transit is available. Contact the FACT office at 724-628-7433 to register for ADA service. Fares are based on one-way trips and range from $1.50 - $6.00.
| • | Personal Care Attendants are allowed to ride free. Companions may ride at the same fare (twice the regular fixed route fare)
| | • | You need to call one day before the day you wish to travel. |
Boarding A Lift Bus
- Please be at your stop at least 5 minutes before the time your bus is schedule to arrive.
- When the bus arrives, please wait approximately 5 feet, or a reasonable safe distance away from the door so that the lift can be deployed.
- When the lift is deployed, move your wheelchair onto the platform backwards, unless otherwise authorized. Lock your brakes, if you are using a motorized wheelchair, shut off the power to the control.
- When the lift platform is level with the bus floor, back onto the bus, give the correct fare to the operator and tell the operator your destination.
- If you are using a motorized wheelchair, and need the operator to assist you, please disengage your clutch; continue to one of the two tie-down locations. Be careful moving between passengers in the aisle.
