Paratransit

Montgomery Area Paratransit (MAP) is a transportation service provided to those who cannot, for physical or cognitive reasons, ride the City Bus system. MAP is avaliable the same hours as the Fixed Route Buses and provides service within a 3/4 mile corridor of fixed routes.

All Montgomery Transit buses have lifts and are accessible to people with disabilities. The Montgomery Area Paratransit program is for people age six (6) and older who are unable to use Montgomery Area Transit fixed route service.

MAP certification for temporary disabilities is available. For longer term disabilities, the maximum certification time is three years. You must maintain eligibility status to qualify for a ride.

Phone (334) 625-4691 for more information.
