[Ohio-talk] question about paratransit

[Jerry Purcell]

Hi Kelsy,
     I'm not sure about paratransit offering a temporary pass.  The phone 
number for rta in cleveland is 216-621-9500.  You can call them and ask 
their customer service rep and they will be able to answer your question.

        Take care Jerry
