These services are generally implemented as a <br />supplement to a program that does not meet critical needs for particular trips in <br />accessible vehicles in certain communities. Examples of unmet needs might be <br />a taxi program without accessible vehicles or medical trips for riders too frail to <br />take a shuttle, or outside of the ADA-mandated service area. <br />These programs make use of fare mediums such as scrip and vouchers to allow <br />consumers to pay for rides. <br />Eligible Population At discretion of program sponsor with local consumer input. <br />Time & Days of Service At discretion of program sponsor with local consumer input. <br />Fare (Cost to <br />Customer) <br />At discretion of program sponsor with local consumer input. <br />Other Specialized van programs should provide trips at an equal or lower cost than the <br />ADA-mandated provider on a cost per trip and cost per hour basis. <br /> <br />
