Topic Guides
on ADA Transportation
Dear Friends,
DREDF is proud to announce our publication of the Topic Guides on ADA Transportation, a series of technical assistance documents funded under a cooperative Agreement with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and developed by DREDF and TranSystems Corporation.
Topic Guides on ADA Transportation bring together the requirements of the ADA and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) ADA regulation, FTA determinations, and operational practices on each topic that comply with the ADA. The Topic Guides also draw information from many other sources, including DOT Disability Law Guidance; FTA ADA Compliance Reviews, Letters of Finding, and Bulletins; Transportation Research Board and National Council on Disability publications; National Transit Institute courses; Easter Seals Project ACTION publications and Distance Learning Sessions; American Public Transportation Association draft Recommended Practices; and the recommendations of nationally recognized ADA transit operators, planners, and researchers on operational practices for implementing ADA requirements.
This series of Topic Guides includes:
Equipment Maintenance
Stop Announcement and Route Identification
Eligibility for ADA Paratransit
Telephone Hold Time in ADA Paratransit
Origin to Destination Service in ADA Paratransit
On-Time Performance in ADA Paratransit
No-Shows in ADA Paratransit
View the Topic Guide Home Page, which offers each Topic Guide in HTML, a PDF download, and a plain text option, at http://dredf.org/ADAtg/index.shtml.
The FTA Office of Civil Rights has also linked to the Topic Guides on ADA Transportation on its ADA website at www.fta.dot.gov/ada under DREDF.
