Dial-a-Ride Program Descriptions
SMART offers Complementary Paratransit service to individuals certified as eligible under the federal ADA guidelines. Reservations can be made up to two weeks in advance for those who are ADA qualified. Reservations must be made the day before for a guaranteed ride.
