How does Dial-a-Ride differ from Fixed Route service?
Dial-a-Ride is a shared ride, door-to-door public transit service that picks up passengers and takes them to destinations within Manteca and to the Lathrop/Manteca ACE Station. Dial-a-Ride is available to seniors, Medical recipients and the disabled who have difficulty using the fixed route service. On Saturdays, it is available to the general public.
Fixed Route service is a public transit service comprised of 3 routes throughout Manteca and to the Lathrop/Manteca ACE Station during peak periods. Manteca Transit buses stop at designated stops along their route at designated times throughout the day. Transfers are available to other Manteca Transit routes. All Manteca Transit routes start and end at the Manteca Transit Center.
What is a Dial-a-Ride "no-show?"
Passengers receive a "no-show" when they fail to cancel a reserved or subscription service ride at least one hour before the scheduled pick-up time, when they are absent from the location at the scheduled pick-up time or when they are not ready at the scheduled pick-up time. Passengers who consistently fail to cancel their rides could be suspended from service.
How would I get suspended from Dial-a-Ride service?
Passengers who fail to show up for 25% of their scheduled trips within a period of 30 consecutive calendar days will receive a First Notice of pending suspension. After the First Notice, if an individual fails to show up for 10% of their scheduled trips within a period of 30 consecutive calendar days the individual will be suspended from using the service for 30 calendar days. Passengers who pose a public health hazard or exhibit inappropriate behavior are subject to immediate suspension.
What is ADA paratransit eligibility?
If you have a disability that prevents you from using the fixed route bus service, you are eligible to receive transportation service on the Manteca Transit Dial-a-Ride, in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). ADA passengers that require a personal care attendant (PCA) are allowed to accompany the ADA passenger for free. Manteca Transit staff determines ADA eligibility through an in-person functional assessment. Once ADA-certified, you will have ridership privileges within each jurisdiction in San Joaquin County based on that agency's ADA fare structure.
For more information and to schedule your functional assessment, visit the San Joaquin RTD website or call (209) 943-1111, option 2, option 1.
