[Md-sligo] Paratransit information for convention

[Michelle Clark]

Debbie,

 

It occurred to me the only thing needed is to call Las Vegas and ask for a
fax number for Metro Access to provide them your certification info.

Below is some information I got online.  If you plan to use paratransit at
the convention, you should call the certification number and find out how to
get them your information.

RTC Policy Regarding Complementary Paratransit Service for Visitors

The RTC will treat as eligible for complementary paratransit service all
visitors who present documentation that they have paratransit eligibility in
the jurisdiction in which they reside. This can be accomplished in advance
of arrival by requesting confirmation of paratransit eligibility be sent to
the RTC either by mail, fax or e-mail.

If the visitor is requesting to register in advance of their arrival and
they are not certified for Paratransit with another transit agency then we
will request that the visitor provide documentation of disability by mail,
fax or e-mail.

If the visitor appears in person to request visitor status and they are
unable to present documentation of paratransit eligibility, we may require
proof of residence and if their disability is not apparent the RTC will ask
the visitor to sign a certification document that states that they are
unable to use fixed route transit.
