Riders Guides for ADA (American with Disabilities Act) and SSTAP (Special Statewide Transportation Assistance Program) programs are now available on the county’s website at www.stmarysmd.com. Click on Forms and Documents under Resources. Then scroll to the alphabetical list of documents in the Public Works and Transportation section.
The SSTAP Guide describes guidelines for the SSTAP transportation program for seniors and persons with disabilities. This program is available outside the STS Public Transportation Routes Monday through Friday and can be used for qualified riders for trips to the medical appointments, shopping visits, etc. The ADA transportation program is available to all persons with disabilities within ¾ miles of the set bus routes and can be used 7 days a week.
Both programs use vehicles which are wheelchair accessible if needed. Weekly appointments can be scheduled; riders should call 301-475-5100 for more information, including fees and scheduled stops.
