Shared
Ride Program
|
Program Description: |
TAWC's Shared-Ride Program for senior citizens enables persons 65 years of age and older to use shared-ride, demand-responsive services and pay only a small portion of the regular shared-ride fare. To participate in the program, the individual must be registered with TAWC. All rides must be requested at least one working day prior to the scheduled trip before 2 p.m. Shared-ride trips are scheduled based on demand and the availability of resources. Some vehicles fill up quickly. Make reservations as soon as possible or within two weeks prior to departure. While TAWC makes every effort to meet the needs of its customers, there are limited resources and TAWC may not be able to accommodate every request. TAWC reserves the right to create and adjust schedules on an "as needed" basis; and to eliminate routes when an inadequate demand exists. Remain flexible in your plans to assure your place on the bus.
