Quick access to local transportation options.
If a member is having difficulty with their transportation they should first try to contact their provider to discuss the situation. Encourage them to become a member of their committee or attend their town hall meetings to be a proponent of change. If they are still having difficulty and would like to file a complaint they should contact the Federal Transit Administration Office of Civil Rights at http://www.fta.dot.gov/civil_rights.html or file an ADA compliance complaint at http://www.ada.gov/complaint/.

On the Max site you can search routes or call a customer service agent to help you find the best route for you. They provide both fixed and para-transit routes and both routes offer accessible buses.
