FIXED ROUTE and YOU

Did you know that persons with disabilities are eligible for a discounted fare on the City's regular fixed route bus service?  However, City Coach requires proper identification to receive the reduced fare.  Click here for a Disability ID Card Application.  You may also go the Department of Public Works at 650 Merchant Street (City Hall), or call 449-5170 to request an application.

 

 

SPECIAL SERVICES

Transportation Services for Persons with Disabilities

Door-to-door Paratransit service is also available to individuals with certified disabilities. Applications for certification may be obtained at the Public Works Department in City Hall, by calling 449-5170 or by downloading the application here. Reservations for rides anywhere in Vacaville must be made by the close of normal business, the day prior to date of service requested.

ADA Pickup
All City Coach buses are equipped with a wheelchair lift and a "kneeling" feature. The wheelchair lift lowers a platform to the ground and lifts the wheelchair onto the bus.  If you are in a wheelchair, the wheelchair brakes must be in good working order at the time you board a bus. This requirement is for your safety during operation of the lift and during the ride.  The lift can also be used by individuals who cannot maneuver the bus steps.  The "kneeling" feature is for use by individuals who have difficulty stepping up onto the bus, yet can maneuver the other steps by using the handrails once inside. This feature mechanically lowers or kneels the front of the bus closer to the curb.

 

Persons with disabilities which prohibit them for using City Coach services may apply for and receive a Paratransit/Special Services Card.  This Card allows the recipient to receive door-to-door transportation services.  Click here for:
