Paratransit Service, or ‘PTS,’ is a public transportation service for qualifying individuals whose disability prevents them from using the regular GLTC bus routes. These rides are provided in vehicles smaller than buses but may have more than one passenger aboard at a time. Rides can be requested from and to any location within our service area. GLTC’s service area for PTS includes the entire city of Lynchburg and a three-quarter (3/4) mile radius around our bus routes that extend beyond the city limits.

PTS provides an origin-to-destination service.   The PTS driver or operator, will assist you with boarding and disembarking the vehicle, and will also help you secure yourself or your mobility device in the vehicle.  The fare for a paratransit trip is $4.00 per person per one-way trip. You must have the exact fare, as drivers do not carry change. For your convenience, you may purchase debit cards worth $40.00 in fares from the operators. The debit cards do not expire.
