TRANSPORTATION
Transportation is helpful in maintaining employment, education, healthcare and community life. Transportation services will allow you to live independently within the community. If you do not drive, there are generally two options: public transit and paratransit. Public transit includes fixed route public transportation by bus, subway and light rail.
Visit the Jewish Federation transportation website to view options in our community.
Paratransit includes door-to-door service for people with disabilities who are unable to ride fixed-route public transportation, including accessible lift-equipped and low-floor buses. There are taxi services as well as private companies that provide accessible transportation.
Travel Training
Travel training is designed to teach you how to travel safely and independently on accessible fixed-route public transportation. Specially trained personnel provide the travel training in a group or one-to-one basis.

New Jersey Resources
There are multiple public transportation agencies in New Jersey. Access Link is a public transportation service developed to comply with the paratransit regulations of the ADA, is comparable to the NJ TRANSIT local fixed route bus system, and is for people with disabilities who are unable to use the local fixed route bus. Access Link buses are equipped with wheelchair lifts and/or kneeling capability. You can also visit NJfindaride.org and via the internet or call 2-1-1 for multiple transportation options.
