The Region : Shuttle for the Disabled
County transportation officials have expanded a low-cost shuttle service for the severely disabled to now include most of the San Gabriel Valley.
Metro Access, a program instituted last September in the eastern half of the San Gabriel Valley, now serves 14 cities, from Bradbury and South El Monte to Pasadena and Alhambra.
Shuttles offer curb-to-curb service, 24 hours daily, within the San Gabriel Valley and also to downtown Los Angeles and western San Bernardino County. Fares are about $1.50 per ride for up to 15 miles. For longer distances, the fare is normally twice what would be charged on local bus lines.
More information is available by calling (800) 827-0829 or using the TDD line of (800) 827-1359 or (800) 855-1155.
