Description

The Northwest Americans with Disabilities Act & Information Technology Center presents a teleconference titled Getting on the Bus: Update on the accessibility of our public transportation systems.  It has been 15 years since many of the transportation requirements under the ADA went into effect, yet people with disabilities find they do not have equal access to public transportation in many communities. This session provides an overview of the status of implementation of the transportation provisions under the ADA, and highlights emerging issues. Best practices by transit agencies and resources for more information will be shared.
