What is Paratransit Service?

Paratransit Service is a shared ride public transportation system, enabling routes and schedules to be structured to transport multiple passengers to their destinations.

The Tyler Transit mobility impaired service offers curb-to-curb transportation anywhere within the City of Tyler. Qualified individuals can ride on all days the regular bus service operates within Tyler.

Trained drivers are available to assist passengers in boarding and exiting the minibuses used in the service. Following our guidelines, your trip can be pleasant, relaxing and trouble-free.

It is the policy of the City of Tyler to provide a demand-response transportation service to eligible passengers (based upon criteria established by the Americans with Disabilities Act) who are unable to utilize the regular Tyler Transit Fixed Route services. All operators are trained to provide minimal assistance. Operators are not trained to provide medical assistance.

For more about operator assistance, check out Rider Information.
