<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Here
are two telephone numbers that will help you ,
First, the general number for New Orleans
Paratransit is 504 873-7433. You use this number
to schedule, modify, or cancel trips while you
are there. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">But,
to use the paratransit service, you will first
need to have your local paratransit provider fax
your certification letter to the New Orleans
paratransit provider. You should do this right
away, well in advance of your leaving for New
Orleans. . The Fax number is: 504-827-8428. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
