San Mateo County Paratransit Rider's Guide HOW TO USE REDI-WHEELS AND REDICOAST San Mateo County Paratransit Rider’s Guide SEPTEMBER 2016 EDITION San Mateo County Paratransit Rider’s Guide To request a copy of this guide in an accessible format, please call 1-800-660-4287 This information is also available at www.samtrans.com/Accessibility ABOUT REDI-WHEELS AND REDICOAST ADA Paratransit is for persons with disabilities who cannot independently use regular bus service some of the time or all of the time. The San Mateo County Transit District (SamTrans) provides ADA paratransit service using Redi-Wheels on the Bayside of the county and RediCoast on the Coastside. Trips must be prearranged. The purpose of this guide is to enable San Mateo County paratransit riders and their families and advocates to become familiar with the paratransit services offered by Redi-Wheels and RediCoast and to help ensure that our customers enjoy the best riding experience we can provide. The information contained in this guide is divided into sections by topic, and is listed in a table of contents beginning on the following page. Please note that Redi-Wheels and RediCoast policies are subject to change without notice. Experienced customers should review this guide carefully, as some sections and policies have changed. All SamTrans buses are accessible, and many persons with disabilities are able to use the regular fixed-route bus service. However, if you are unable to use accessible fixed-route transit for some or all of your trips, you may be eligible for paratransit. If you're not sure whether you're able to use the regular bus, call SamTrans at 1-800-660-4287. SamTrans can provide travel training to paratransit users or non-paratransit users who wish to learn how to use SamTrans and Caltrain.

Evaluations are conducted by appointment only. Please call 650-366-4856 to schedule an appointment.

Visitors to San Mateo County who are ADA paratransit eligible are entitled to 21 days of visitor eligibility in any 12-month period. If ADA paratransit service is not available in your area, or if you are not signed up to use paratransit where you live, but you would like to use Redi-Wheels or RediCoast while you are visiting San Mateo County, please call 650-508-6241 for more information. If you live in Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, Santa Clara, Solano or Sonoma County, and you travel into or through San Mateo County using ADA paratransit, you can be certified for “intercounty” eligibility, which will run concurrently with your eligibility status in your “home” county.

  • SAMTRANS CORRESPONDENCE As of 12-11-2020
    SAMTRANS CORRESPONDENCE as of 12-11-2020 December 8, 2020 The Honorable Gavin Newsom Governor, State of California State Capitol, Suite 1173 Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear Governor Newsom: Bay Area transit systems continue to struggle in the face of dramatically reduced ridership and revenues due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This challenge was already the most significant crisis in the history of public transportation, and now it has persisted far longer than any of us would have predicted. Since the beginning, our workers have been on the front lines, doing their jobs as essential workers, responsible for providing other front line workers with a way to safely travel to and from essential jobs. Now that the availability of a vaccine is on the horizon, we are proud to echo the attached call from the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU). Specifically, we urge you to work to ensure that transit, paratransit, and school transportation workers are prioritized along with other essential workers to receive the vaccine following the critical need to vaccinate the State’s healthcare workers. Even with reduced ridership, an average of 8 million monthly riders continue to depend on Bay Area transit services. These riders are the healthcare workers, grocery clerks, caregivers, emergency services personnel and others doing the critical work that has kept California functioning during the pandemic. They cannot continue to do so without access to reliable public transportation, and are therefore dependent on the health of the transit workers that serve them every day. Our agencies have worked hard to ensure the public health of riders and transit workers during this crisis.

  • Samtrans Fast Facts
    SamTrans Fast Facts Administration The San Mateo County Transit District is the administrative body for the principal public transit and transportation pro- grams in San Mateo County, SamTrans bus service including Redi-Wheels and RediCoast paratransit service, Caltrain commuter rail and the San Mateo County Transportation Authority. Caltrain and the TA have contracted with the District to serve as their managing agency, under the direction of their independent board of directors. The Board of Directors consists of nine members from various leadership positions in the community with the following composition: two members from the county Board of Supervisors; one transportation expert appointed by the Board of Supervisors; three city councilpersons, appointed by the City Selection Committee; and three public members, one of whom must reside on the coastside, appointed by the above six members. SamTrans Strategic Plan In December 2014, SamTrans approved its five-year Strategic Plan, a blueprint that will guide the policy decisions of the bus agency from 2015 to 2019. The plan focuses on five main goals: increasing bus ridership by 15 percent, growing passenger fare revenue by 20 percent, reducing annual debt service by $1.5 million, improving organizational perfor- mance and managing workforce change. SamTrans has already successfully pursued several of those goals. Due in large part to the changes implemented as a result of the SamTrans Service Plan—the most extensive reworking of bus operations along the Peninsula in a genera- tion—bus ridership is stabilizing, reversing years of stagnant growth. The bus agency also approved changes to its fare policy, aimed at restoring the agency’s fiscal health and achieving the goal of 20 percent fare revenue growth.
