The Prince Rupert Transit System offers three types of accessible
transit service: Fixed-route service, handyDART service and
the Taxi Saver Program.
On the Prince Rupert Transit System a fleet of Low-floor buses
provide wheelchair and scooter accessible service on transit
routes throughout the region. Low-floor buses are equipped
with a ramp, have no entry steps and have a kneeling feature
that lowers the entry level for passengers who use walkers,
crutches or who have difficulty climbing stairs.
For people with disabilities who are unable to use the fixed-route
transit system without assistance, handyDART
provides door-to-door transportation to and from accessible
building entrances.
For those times when the handyDART system is unavailable, the
Taxi Saver Program provides registered
handyDART passengers (16 years and older) with subsidized taxi
service, giving them the flexibility to coordinate their own
trips.
