Accessible transportation service
Wheelchair Van Transportation Across the Bay Area
A wheelchair accessible van is the right vehicle when one or two passengers need a direct, door-to-door trip without the scale of a bus. RideConnect provides wheelchair van transportation throughout San Francisco, the Peninsula, the East Bay, Marin and the northern South Bay for individuals, families, care coordinators and organizations arranging travel on someone's behalf.
Vans are ramp- or lift-equipped with securement positions, and there is room for a companion, aide or family member to travel alongside. Many riders book a single trip; many others set up a standing schedule for appointments, day programs, classes or regular visits.
How this service works
Door-to-door pickups
Curbside arrival at homes, residences, offices, campuses and venues, with time built in for a safe, unhurried boarding.
Companion seating
Space for a family member, aide or caregiver to ride with the passenger rather than following separately.
Standing schedules
Recurring van trips on set days and times for appointments, programs, classes and standing commitments.
Round trips and wait time
Return legs planned in advance, including arrangements where the van waits rather than being re-dispatched.
